If I was in the market for a winch I'd talk to McGirr.
Don't know if he still has any winches, but everything I've brought from him has always been first rate.

Finally got a new set of MSA canvas seat covers for the front and rear of the Pajero.

Got them from Wolf 4x4 for $828 instead of $990, only because their website was out of date and showing an old price!  :cheers:

Not sure if you would call it a bargain but i picked up a full length ally roofrack for the troll on the weekend. Shovel and mounts on one side, mounts for an awning on the other side and with pvc tubes for fishing poles on each side. Also has a wind deflector on the front. He started out at $700 on gumtree a few weeks ago (never gonna happen) and down to $400 on Saturday. Offered $350 and got it. I know I could have got a steel one new for $400 but these are so much lighter and don't rust. Also made for the GQ so no mods to do for it to fit.
Happy with my buy

not by yourself lol.
However with 4 people, a couple of dents (about $800 to repair) and a broken finger its doable lol

Yeah I know about the weight factor. Two of us lifted this one on in about 2 minutes. And both of us are no spring chickens. And with no roof damage.

If you like spiced rum, BWS are clearing out their stocks of Foursquare rum as a discontinued line - 700ml bottle for around $25

Made in Barbados. It's actually not a bad drop I reckon.  ;D
