Come-up DV9000 range have same gearing ratios as a Warn M9000i

the come up is the same as the superwinch just cheaper bits. ive known folk running them for all sorts of stuff with few troubles. pg is about your best bet. but david bowyer might do a superwinch for about the same money though. or try rebel 4x4.

Unless I drop on a budget one for about £200 I will eventually get an Superwinch EP9i from Rebel. I just wasn't sure if the T Max was Chinese or not.

The Come-up DV range comes in more expensive than the Superwinch EP range. Like Frog said, use the same parts as Warn which influenced my decision to get one. Also a lot of the vehicles doing the Lodoga challenge ran them. Figured if they can put up with that abuse then will work good for me. Purchased from PG winches although was not the best transaction Ive had. This was before the moded site. The link for the (CU)DV 9000i took people to the price for the (SW) EP-9000i which was over £100 pound cheaper. My stupidity really but phoned up and ordered and paid for winch.  :oops: When it arrived I discovered I had paid an extra £100. Phoned up and was told that was the price for the Superwinch not the Come-up. Not happy.  :x Then realised my winch had an identity sticker stating model number and serial that said it had a 2.6hp motor. Not 4.6 as stated on the site, in the manual etc. Again phoned up and was told, it must be a mistake when they printed it or its 24v not 12v!!!!!! :evil:

I hope others have had better purchasing experiance than I have as before I purchased from PG winches I was reccomended them and heard good things.
