    Has anybody heard of the SuperATV winch? At $150 (sale ends tomorrow), it seems like a good deal on a 3500 with synthetic rope and wireless remote. No technical details on the site, but will call tomorrow to get the specs.

    I've seen several similar to the SuperATV winch like the Warrior (available at Home Depot):
    Warrior C3500XT Winch.
    I've also been looking at Viper and the Terra SuperWinch...Both in the $250 range with synthetic rope.

    Whatever I end up getting, I like the toolbox idea and will try to make one on my own. I already grabbed a couple Anderson plugs from work salvaged from some battery back up units.

          Thank you for the info on the plug. Is this something that can be picked up at an electrical supply company? Looks heavy duty!

            I was lucky to get a number of plugs with harness at Princess Auto. I have seen them at an electrical supply house. I suspect anybody that is big in batteries would have them. They are heavy duty but I think anything less causes poor contacts when you really need it.
