The RC's are the same as the Mile Marker, so there's no quality issues there. And, you get a wireless remote with the RC, a winch rated for another 1500 lbs over the SEC8, plus a 10% discount by going through Grimmus on here. $312 shipped for a 9500 with cable is a steal. I got the synthetic line and it was still only $412 shipped. WAY better deal IMO.

How do you know they're exactly the same?

Mile Marker builds Smittybilt, RC, and Harbor Frieght winches through Transamerican Auto. The materials all come from Mile Marker.
