Review on Superwinch 1612201 Capacity Fairlead Synthetic by Joel Norfork

I bought this winch from Revain with premium shipping. The winch looked great when I unpacked it. to my Land Cruiser 94. Only used it a few times with light loads.I usually deploy it for a month or two and return it just to make sure everything is working fine.I wanted to use it and when I pressed the button on the controller nothing happened .The solenoid clicked in the control box but nothing else.Contacted Superwinch to see what the problem could be.They gave me some instructions on how to test the motor.Guess?After 16 months the motor was already broken,I have these Bought winch brand because it was recommended by several reputable trade magazines and private individuals, not sure if I just got a lemon but im Mo ment definitely disappointed. Luckily it's still under warranty, but now I have to take the bumper off to get to the winch.
