Warn Winch M8000 - A Bumper Winch That Can Save Your Asterisk - The Mudslinger's Must Have Tool!
If you're the kind of driver that likes to go off road now and then, be sure to check out the Warn Winch 26502 M8000.
This bumper winch has what you need to get out of tough spot, 4.8 horse power and an 8,000 pound pull rating.
That means it's more than capable of pulling the typical truck, jeep, sport utility vehicle or hummer out of just about any situation you can put it into. It seems custom made for the mudslinging, trail riding mother-nature loving drivers who like to hit the tough spots for a little fun and adventure.
And of course any experienced driver worth a grain of salt will tell you, if you are trucking through the mud you better have a warn winch on your bumper... or at least, you better be traveling with someone who does.
This winch will be your saving grace when you hit those tough spots where you just can't get enough traction from those monster tires to pull you out. The warn winch M8000 is has plenty of power to do the job.
Having a reliable bumper winch on your vehicle can save you a lot of time, money and aggravation when when the wheels are spinning but the truck's not moving. If you get into even one situation where you need it, you'll be patting yourself on the back for being smart enough to have bought it (and so will whoever happens to be with you at the time).
Whether you drive for business or pleasure, if you're in the mud, sand, rocks or water, this winch is a must have.Of course, you can find a winch cheaper than the warn winch m8000 but you won't find one that's more reliable. It's best in it's class for a bumper winch.
The full name is the "Warn 26502 M8000 Vehicle Recovery Winch". The number 26502 is the part number for this winch and as you might guess, it's called the M8000 because of it's 8,000 pound pull rating.
Here's a list of standard features:
This winch has a powerful 4.8 horsepower motor and yet it's still light and compact.
The motor is powered by 6' color coded leads that attach to your 12 volt battery.
A fast and quiet 3 stage planetary gear-train (gear ratio 216:1) and automatic brake.
100' of 5/16" wire rope with clevis hook, hook strap and a roller fairlead. (hawse fairlead optional / sold separately)
Also comes with 12' handheld rubber remote controller! (great for staying out of harms-way while you get the job done).
Every review I've seen on the Warn Winch M8000 has been FIVE STARS and I've never met anyone with a Warn Winch that didn't swear by it. If you're looking for a bumper winch that will do what it is supposed to do, every time, then the Warn Winch M8000 is just what you're looking for!
