Winch hasn't been working so I gave them a call and they're sending out what I should need. No problems and only questions they asked was when and where I got.

Great customer service!!

Good to hear that they take care of thier customers!

I have 2 of the 8k Smillybilts, one permanently mounted to my bumper and the other has a multi mount set-up so my buddies can use it or I can in my rear hitch. The multi-mount one has been used in about 7-8 extractions and my new one has only been tested and not used actually wheeling yet. They are a decent winch if you use it as an "insurance" type of winch. I wouldn't trust it to hang my truck off of waterfalls/ledges like guys out here do. In that case the $1k+ Warn is what you need.

I have to say the same about Mile Marker. I ran into som brush and messed up the solenoid a few years ago. I called MM to order a replacement and they sent me a whole solenoid and controller for free, I didnt even pay shipping!

Got the solenoid installed a while back and still nothing!! So I finally got back in touch with them today, time zones had us playing phone tag. lol

Talked to a guy named Ray and he's sending me out a new controller and plug to see if that's the problem.

They've been so easy to work with. Smittybilt has great customer service!
