    Id go with smitty..... I recall the reviews being pretty good, and I wouldn't trust a no-name rebranded rough country winch.

    I'd go with the Smitty just for the warranty. All these winches are made in china so at least take a gamble with the best warranty.

    I agree with the others, Get the Smittybilt.

    I checked my price and I would have to add shipping so the deal you posted is better than anything I can offer too.

    I have the smittybuilt 9k for a couple of years now. Very light use, spends most of the time inside. I have a front reciever that it hooks to with a curt mounting plate. Mine is like new and have never had any problems with it, but I would recommend keeping it portable as constant exposure to the elements will wear anything out. Also, it can be used front or rear.
