I've just been rummaging through the junk mail tonight and I don't normally pay attention to the Autobarn catalogue, but Page 3 of the latest catalogue caught my eye. Warn winches are now being sold by Autobarn and the are also selling Warn badged recovery gear. The Warn full recovery kit looks Ok for $199 if anyone is in the market for one...

Might need to pick up one of those bow shackles when i get home again - one of mine seems to have disappeared...Now, does this thread constitute spam or a free plug for autobarn?

Yeh it does look a bit Spamish? Could be moved into the eBay bargains thread even though it's not eBay... Just thought it was odd for autobahn to start distributing Warn kit. Also never knew that there was warn Recovery equipment (straps etc...) available on the market. I'll have to look closer.

They have been selling it now for a few months, I have looked at the gear and noticed that some of it is not made in the USA, it was made in China.

The VRS winch on the bottom ,if it is like the one i seen sold through opposite lock ,appear to be not bad value. The vms winch i was informed are made and sold by Warn through their Aust importer Ateco but are made via China as direct copies of their USrange and warranty is thru warn ateco. The ones i looked at appear to be good copies and maybe a good budget alternative to some of the other cheap brands out there or spending up big on the real thing.
