[muddinmike]

whats the price? there is a place here in town that has good prices as well.

 

[axaviere]

its 599.99... thats pretty good huh?

 

[Blaze]

I was thinking about picking up one of those too, Axe, so maybe someone will chime in soon. Like you said though at that price if noone responds to your question with bad feedback I might just have to take the plunge!!:shrug

The prices on the 9000 and the 12000 are hard to beat IMO

 

[dogonmut]

I've got the 9000 and only paid $350.00 for it on a promo deal. I have only used it once to dis-lodge Dustin and it worked like a charm. If your a mud guy that gets stuck in thick goo or winch a whole lot I'd go with the 12,000 pound unit for sure. But for a retail price of $400.00 the 9000 can't be beat.

 

[alboy79]

There ya have it.. dont sound like a bad deal... where did you all see these prices at? :beer

 

[RaisedIIPerfection]

Well im a mud person and strictly mud.Where is everyone getting their prices from?Im interested in getting a 12000 but dont know where everyone is getting their prices from.Also does the company carry anything bigger than 12000?

 

[ssgtdirt]

from what i've read they are slower than warn winches, but i personnally would rather have a slow winch than no winch at all. gimme a min and i'll post a thread from another board about mm winches.

:banghead :lolup :lolup :beer :thumbup ...HAHAHA thanks for the link.I hope the price stays around that price range until i can steal some money :twak

 

[ssgtdirt]

i'm willing to bet that you can find it cheaper.

 

[miseroth]

How about this one (same winch, different site):

http://209.240.4.82/acb/showdetl.cfm?&DID=48&Product_ID=1840&CATID=14

If that link does not work, I went to www.ntwonline.com then to winches, then to Mile Marker.

 

[ssgtdirt]

looks good, but are you sure you want a 9k, not a 12 or 15k?

 

[MattBFromlacey]

Ive got there hydraulic winch (10,500 pounds) and it werks like a charm, but like you said its slow, Personally ive heard bad things about there electric winches word is there hydraulics are great but there electrics arent up to par

My friends got a 9000 pounder and hes blown it twice, now granted hes a moron and he dosent take care of his stuff but still my bro's warn winch takes a lickin and keeps on tickin

If your in need of a cheaper winch i say go with the hydraulic there worth every darn penny in my opnion and im poor so that should count for something

Matt --

Ps im not ragging on dogonmut just because he owns an electric im just giving my two cents i studied winches for a good six months before going with the Milemarker so id like to think i know what im talking about :thumbup

 

[The Yak]

I've owned a MM9k hydraulic winch for four years without a hint of trouble. They are slow, but extremely reliable.

Buy it, you won't be dissapointed.

 

[Blaze]

Yea, Milemarker started out making hydro's for the military, and have not been in the electric game all that long. I have also considered going with hydro...how hard is it to install???:shrug
