Not really convinced about how much this winch can handle. It had a bit of a hard time pulling a Camry out of some shallow mud.
I gotta tell you, this KW75122RM-1 winch from Keeper is a pretty awesome piece of kit. My better half fixed it up onto our trusty Kubota tractor.
Now, the hitch mount doesn’t take too much effort to get on or off when you’re not using it, but don’t get me wrong, it’s no toy. This thing’s heavy and wrestling it into the receiver is a bit of a chore. Though, if you’re attaching it onto a standard vehicle hitch, it’s not such a bother.
Also, I never gave much thought to the wireless remote feature, but boy, was I wrong! It became a game-changer pretty quick. I mean, who wants to wrangle with a bunch of cables under a tractor? Plus, it’s safer this way.
As for power, it pulled up everything I’ve thrown its way like a champ – tree stumps, stuck gear, even huge planter containers. It’s probably a tad more powerful than I need, but hey, I’m not complaining. Living on a 10-acre tree farm means I’m always pulling or lifting something heavy.
I haven’t given it a go on a vehicle yet but considering how handily it hitch mounts, it shouldn’t be a problem at all when the time comes.
My only critique would be that the battery cables could be a bit longer. It’s not a biggie with my tractor setup, but if you’ve got a rear-mounted hitch and a battery upfront, it might be an issue.
So, yeah, I’d definitely vouch for this winch.
This is totally worth the price. Had to put some extra elbow grease into assembling it, but managed to piece it together anyways. Time will tell how well it holds up after a few years of use.
Picked one up from a rival brand – it’s definitely faster than Super Winch. Liking it so far, especially the wireless control.
