I just bought my HF 12K winch a couple of months ago. There were 2 different part numbers, one had 85 feet of cable, and the one I got that had 100 feet.

What synthetic line did you go with? Dd you get a good deal?
There's a parking lot sale going on at harbour freight right now (online too) and the winch is listed for $299. But I just picked up a winch for $240 shipped. Use the code 43119088 to get 25% off of the $299 price and it brings the total to $224.99 + $6.99 shipping + $9 tax= $240.98
Thanks to ERG80 for posting the coupons in his hf coupon thread he just saved me a ton of money.
Am update of sorts. My 12k hf winch has more than paid for itself in the short time I have had it. It is slow but it pulls hard. The only thing I dont like about it is as soon as I switch it to freespool the cable unwinds itself on the drum.
The test for ME is how it works after a winter in WI...but thus far, I've been impressed with it...especially for the price.
Anybody have a pic of the new spring thingy they've added to the drum to help the spooling? Maybe something we could fab up for the older ones.
Thanks, but the pic is a bit fuzzy. What does it do, keep tension on the rope while spooling?
