Choosing an ATV Or Recovery Winch
When it comes to accessories for your off road vehicle, a winch is one of the most important accessories you can buy. If you’re a hardcore off roader, no doubt you’re going to find yourself in a few sticky situations. An ATV or recovery winch can get you out and back on the trail in no time, so you can spend less time stuck in the mud and more time playing.
The number of options available for your first off road winch can be overwhelming, especially if you don’t understand the pros and cons of each feature. You want to make sure you get the right winch for your vehicle, or you could end up just as stuck as before. If you’re a first-time buyer, there are four basic design options to consider:
1. Rated Line Pull
2. Line Speed
3. Cable Type
4. Solenoid Mounting
