Re: What winch for a 74 Scout II, and price?

[bobb@domain.elided (Bob Blair)]

Summit Racing (1-800-230-3030) sells the Superwinch S9000 for $650 w/ 
roller fairlead & cables. Add $60 for the mounting plate and $5 S&H.

It is a great winch, plenty stong enough (11,000 # stall) for a Scout II.

It does not have a brake though; if you pull hard enough (like hanging 
a Scout off a tree on a 60 degree hill) it will unspool.  So you have 
to hit the power.  Typically, you don't need a brake.
