Engo Winch? Anyone using one?
 
Hey guys,

I'm getting ready to order my bumpers from Nate's. They've got a pretty good deal on Engo winches, is anyone currently using one?

I have the 9000lb Engo. Used it quite a few times and no problems pulling. The only complaint I have is the way the cable is mounted to the drum. One small retainer which got crushed when I had to pull at an angle. Straight on it would not have been a problem, but now I have to try to replace it.

Good value for the money, there was a test in one of the magazines between 10 winches. The engo and one other were the only 2 that survived.

I'm in NYC/New Jersey. I can get the 10K with rope for $433. Does the Warn have a cable?

Shipping would be bizarre. It weigs 90 lbs

I was there last year for the opening of the plant (I work for VW). I should have picked it up. That would have been great, trying to carry a winch onto the plane:w00t:

I have an engo. I like it. It was $300 shipped for the 10k.

I can get the 10k w/steel cable for that but I want the synthetic rope.

I have seen the Engo in action. It looks to be a solid piece to me. I will probably go with it as well once I have the coin.
