Runva 11000lb winch review

Fri May 15, 2015 9:30 pm

Runva 11000lb real world use.

Driver pulls a Gary but weird it wasn't Gary. Guess he's giving tips.

3/4 ton van with 1500lbs of water stuck in the mud. 3x30 foot straps and 95 feet of cable.
Road was so slick i couldnt drive straight or get any traction. Very deep ditch on one side that wanted to eat the jeep.
Winch worked flawlessly and the jeep managed to not slide towards the van.

Wireless remote is wonderful as it lets you stand out of harms way, and the range is not bad.
This one job saved me from having to call a towing company, to hear them say can't help you.
I would recommend this winch over and over again.

Might be a silly question.. but what the heck was he doing out there? That doesn't look like a road..?

There is in deed a "road" there. The gravel stopped at the farm house and normally he drives down the dirt road to complete his delivery. But i never dawned on him that he should find another way.

Ahh I see, thought maybe you supplied water to large farming equipment or something and he got stuck out in a field. :0

He told me the moment he hit the mud and tried stopping... it just kept going and going and going LOL. Jason said he even had fun just trying to drive on the mud. His Safari's clogged up, good thing he doesn't like mud, because the only time I clogged up my MTs was before that Policor run we did where I arrived late with NO room in my wheel wells because of them being clogged full of hard packed mud. Jason would not have like cleaning that... or replacing a TON of fender clips!
