I would be up for that, I could show you some spots around the Nanaimo area ( or at least point you in a good direction for a day trip) and then maybe next day I could take you to the Cowichan area to meet up with Shane and make a day trip out of it in that area.
Good price for a good winch, congrats on the addition.
Might not be a bad idea to pull the planetary end off and wash it out and put new grease in. If you do plan on doing that I would suggest putting gear oil between the housing and the outer ring gear instead of grease, it will make it much easier to free spool.
I bought my Warn 10,000 for $100.00 because the guy said it wouldn't free spool, he figured the gears were damaged. When I opened it up it was just full of stiff grease, after removing all the gearing (By the way it can only go together one way so don't be afraid to pull it apart) and washing the gears and housing it works like a champ...works like a Warn.
Just an FYI, I just seen in the Canadiantire flyer they (Superwinch 10,000) are on sale for 449.00, regular 779.00.
They are a pretty good winch, not top of the line but I would say an upper midscale winch. I know a number of people who run them and have never heard any complaints from them. If I didn't find my Warn I would have bought a Superwinch.
Jeeps still on stands, I'm still down for a few weeks I think.
