[landcruiser3DP]

i'm looking online at used winches and wondering if anyone knows if there are good older models to look for. i've got a slee front bumper that insurance paid for. i'm planning to only pick up something that is really reliable and would be worth spending the time refurbing so wondering if there are specific makes or models i should look for.

I would try to find a Warn XP 9.5, should be more than enough power and it's a direct fit. That model has been around long enough you can find them used once in awhile. Certainly a high quality winch and worth rebuilding if necessary. They fit excellent on the short bus bumper without any mods.
