well you have a little way to go then if you have only been doing it for 10 years,and only your personal opinion,as opposed to facts!!
Your right, no competition, your comparing a winch which sells second hand in almost any form for the same price as a good Chinese winch, simple. The warn will still be pulling you out when the cheap job imploded
Again mere speculation on your part,I have seen many 8274's fail in the most inoportune places.
Completely different winches to your worm driven Ramsay.......and 1/10th the weight
How come it is ok for you to compare a Hi Mount to a Chinese Low mount,but when I present another option it isn't Ok?
If he was buying new, 800ish bucks vs close to 3k it's a bit different, but anyhow
Price isn't everything,the price of 8274's is inflated in Aust. because they are popular in winch challenge events,where they often fail!!
If price was everything,we would all be driving something from Japan:eek:
Simple question, have you had both types apart?
The answer is I have owned 2 8274's over many years and have been let down in the rough by them,and I haven't pulled a Tigerz11 winch apart,I have seen one pulled apart.And I don't own one or have any connection to them.
Oh it's only an lr, 1mm cutting discs on a 5" should come in the spares kit from new, should only need a grill trim
