Land Rover Winch

Recommended Posts

I've had a few winches in the past fitted to Landys but the 12,000 lbs Goodwinch fitted to my current 110 is brilliant:thumbup1:

Very easy to hand pull the cable out and fast/quiet on the pull in.

Just take care when using snatch blocks and slings as the loads can get very large and never stand inside the angle if using a snatch block/pulley to pull around corners or to double the pull!!

ditto that, skidding trees out of a park, had a 90degree redirect, and a timberwolf 150 chipper sitting on the inside angle, redirect sling snapped, the cable whipped into the chipper moving it 10feet across the ground sideways

When I got mine out of the box it had a KINGONE sticker on it and some spare Goodwinch stickers to put on incase the 'Kingone' hadnt been removed prior to shipping.

 

My winch is the Goldfish TDS version which I can't fault neither can I fault David Bowyer for price, shipping etc. He also gave me the wireless control that just fits inside the plastic cover under the new 'Goodwinch' sticker.:thumbup:

You can go wireless remote for under 25 quid on the bay

 

Leave the had wire fitted as a back up and have the convenience of standing wherever you want to.

has anyone got one of the £25 ones fitted. are they ok? im thinking about buying a winch and recognise that its handy to be cutting the tree and doing the winching rather than relying on someone to watch for you to wave your arms etc

I have owned one and fitted two for others and the only bother has been a transmitter that got stood on and fixed with gaffer tape and glue.

 

It’s mostly solid state gear so there isn’t a lot to go wrong.

 

You can’t beat cutting and controlling the pull yourself

Yep, I bought one a while back and the handset is better designed than the original. All works fine.
