Budget Winch Accessory Kit

[SteelblueSteve]

Thought the price of most winch acc. kits was kinda high(MileMarker, Warn, ARB, etc.) so I threw mine together with all new pieces, nothing used, for a total of $75. Jeep bag was free from one of the CampJeeps I attended, two 13,000lb. D-rings from farm and fleet at $9 apiece, 20,000lb. snatchblock with grease port from ebay at $28(shipping included), explore procomp treesaver strap $28.99 from 4wheelparts(free shipping). Links included.

Sticker on them said they were made in India, so they're Indian crap, not Chinese crap

Advice, take it or not, dump the shackles, get some quality units.

JMHO

Nice kit however, take the advice giving here about gloves and such.

I do have the gloves, shipping dept. at work will never miss a couple pairs out of the hundreds they keep on hand for handling bar stock.
I've got other straps and chains, just wanted to post up the stuff I had to get to meet the equivalent of those "kits" I see out there, which seem way too expensive. I searched for better Drings on ebay when I was looking for the snatch block, but didn't find any. I'll get some soon.
Two things i didn't notice when I first posted: my foot was in the picture, and that is one f'in ugly right foot. My left foot is the good looking one.

Not bustin your chops here but not sure how this can be your honest opinion seeings how majority of industrial cast iron products are made in India. All the grade rings and man hole caps on the street, India. Zern drains on comercial buildings, India. Industrial crane hooks, India. And the sewer grates................... India. Reseaching your metals would have neted you quality cast parts come from India.

PS Over priced Warn shackles suck.

And researching Farm and Fleet would have shown you that there is also poor quality cast parts from India.

Not saying they are bad, or won't work, heck I use a set on my quad, but I would pay a few more bucks for a quality unit.

or $15 here if you don't like Rusty's:

shackle is shown about 1/3 of the way down the page.

Just throwing those out there. Prices aren't bad. ARB quality is fairly high.

 

[PornstaR]

And also let me inform you that the U.S.A. ones you so desprately look for to seem patriotic would stand for United Steel Association. Dosent mean its made in the United States.

 

[Rev Den]

Yawn.

Point missed.

I don't care where they are made, I was simply making a statement that was relevent to the Farm and Fleet shackles ONLY, and then only the units that he used.

That is it...no more...no less.
