Review on BIG RED ATRT1161CR 1600Lbs Capacity by Ron Kishore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You will not receive what is originally shown

I was expecting the top mechanism to be the same as the original photo but as you can see in my photo it is different. Cheap pullers have a spring that you press with your finger, and anyone who's cycled them back and forth a number of times knows that thumb hurts after a while. I ordered 2 cable pullers with supposedly lighter shifting system but none of them were what was shown. This uses a similar action but is still different, you don't have to push the spring out of the way. On the side you turn is a lever that moves the spring to loosen it. I'm not entirely happy with this discrepancy but I have already returned one and am tired of returning items and not receiving what is in the photo. I'll just leave it at that because technically it's better than the manually moved spring system, but certainly not what I expected. Everything else looks solid so I think everything will be fine. At the moment I'm not even sure if what was originally pictured even exists. Or even buy it somewhere that has a button release mechanism. Of course the photos can't be trusted so it's a gamble whether you get what's shown or not.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
