WARRIOR WINCHES – CHAMPION REBRAND!

February 21st, 2012

WINCH NEWS!!!

CHAMPION Winches are in the process of changing their name to WARRIOR WINCHES.

There is obviously an overlap of winches having the usual ‘Champion’ branding as stock depletes and gets replaced with ‘Warrior’ winch branding. The winches however, are exactly the same. It’s just the nameplates and boxes that are changing.

These will still be available through www.electricwinchshop.co.uk

The reasoning behind Champion changing their name to Warrior is as follows should you be interested:

The Champion winches are now a worldwide brand and sold overseas in N. America and Canada as ‘Warrior Winches’ having two different brand names for the winches just isn’t convenient as often ‘Champion’ stock from the UK can be sent overseas to the USA and Canada market to help out with stock. So from this point of view all winches need to be branded the same and so the brand ‘Warrior’ for the Champion winches will be introduced in the UK to make it one global brand.

For Champion winches here in the UK it will be “business as normal” and all the winches going from Champion to Warrior will be readily available from the ELECTRIC WINCH SHOP

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the rebranding of the Champion winches to Warrior winches please don’t hesitate to call us on 01274 680744 or email: sales@autoliftuk.com

Superwinch S5000 questions

February 21st, 2012

S5000 Questions:
HiI am thinking of buying a Superwinch S5000 12v from you and was just wanting to know if the the Budget 12v Wireless Control can be connected to this winch.
I will be fitting this to a car trailer can I use my own flat mounting plate or does it require it’s own one.
Also can this winch be supplied with synthetic rope.
I don’t suppose you can fit the remote for me when I buy one?
Also do you supply spare plastic housings in case it does get broken?
What connections are there on it for connecting my power leads and what sort of power pack rating is recommended?
Once ordered what is the delivery time, i.e. are they in stock
Many thanks and sorry for all the questions!
A:
You can fit the budget wireless remote or the Lodar wireless remote to the S5000 12v but you need to be really careful taking off the plastic housing so you don’t break it as I believe it can be a little tricky. People have managed it alright though!
 
As for synthetic ropes, we don’t offer them on this winch just at the moment, however later on in the year (and it could be a fair old while off yet), there will be the S5000 ‘Danny O’Day’ model which will be supplied with synthetic rope and integral wireless remote.. trouble is there’s no ETA on this!
 
You can buy the S5000 here:
 
 
There is just one S5000 12v winch in at Superwinch the moment with a shipment landing Friday (24/1/12) should it sell in the meantime. The 24v ones are in stock. These go out on a next day service if ordered before 2:30 ish. Bit late for today so it’d go out tomorrow now and you’d get it Wednesday. I’m afraid we don’t install the wireless remotes and replacement covers are readily available, but it shouldn’t come to that. I may of made it sound more risky than what it actually is just so you exercise caution when fitting!
 The winch comes with battery leads already fitted that are designed to work off a standard 12v car battery. (Or 24v battery obviously if you go for that model).

Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Winch Query

January 26th, 2012

We require a winch for forest machinery- tractors, to pull out from snow/mud with the wood freight on them. so one tractor can pull out the other.

It should be a hydraulic winch.
intended for pulling of 18 tones
What would be the price and availability?

We have a number of hydraulic winches, the only thing is, once they get upto 18t they become very big winches.
One for the Warrior C20000NH winch which is a 9t winch that you could double the capacity up with a big pulley block - £1630 +vat

Alternatively, there is the much bigger JP series Warrior winches. These are quite a bit more expensive and are generally used as large offshore winches.

C15JP –  £4595 +vat

C20JP –  £5590 +vat

C30JP –  £7340 +vat

C40JP -  £12860 +vat

The JP winches are usually sold without ropes.

HYDRAULIC WINCHES 

Range Rover P38 Winch Bumper. Questions

January 26th, 2012

Im interested in the P38 winch bumper on your website.
Can you send me some more details?

We have a couple of different P38 winch bumpers. The ‘Premium’ P38 winch bumper is a shaped bumper with built in spot lights which costs - £365 +vat which can be seen here:

http://www.autoliftuk.co.uk/category/p38-winch-bumper/

The hole shown next to the fairlead slot won’t actually be there, this was for swivel recovery eyes should you wish to fit them. They’ve since been taken out for aesthetics. This bumper is more designed for looks rather than practicality!

Our alternative P38 winch bumper is on the photo below. A much more simple wrap around bumper that’s a lot more designed for off road use than the ‘Premium’ model. It has holes for recovery eyes and also jacking points, (The swivel recovery eyes and shackles aren’t included). This is just - £250 +vat


I hope this all helps. Let me know how you would like to proceed: sales@autoliftuk.com

Electric Winch Questions

January 26th, 2012

I need a unit that can pull about 40meters but not with much force. Do you know of anything or can a unit be modified for this? I am dragging an isis tennis tru level roller on the flat. It weights about 250 kg. I have 240 volts easily available.

The capacity isn’t a problem at all, any of our electric winches can pull this. Where the problem is would be the length of cable required. Small winches only hold upto around 18 metres so wouldn’t be suitable. Once you get onto a 6000 lbs capacity winch they get a bigger winch drum so can potentially hold more rope. We do a Champion C6000S winch which holds 30m of rope, so you could either take the standard winch and uses a winch extension strop, or take off the rope and put on a smaller diameter rope to just over 40 metres. Putting a smaller diameter rope on would mean the rope wouldn’t suit the winch capacity, but that shouldn’t matter to yourselves as you’re only pulling 250 Kg anyhow.

The C6000S comes with an integrated wireless remote too.

Now, power supply. 240v winches cost a lot more money and tend to be a lot bigger too and are a lot harder to come across. Nearly all winches are either 12v or 24v to run off vehicle batteries. Are you ok with 12v?

Details of the Champion C6000S are here:

VW Amarok Winch Conversion by the Electric Winch Shop

January 20th, 2012

The recently launched VW Amarok has just been given the winch conversion treatment by the Electric Winch Shop.

With the VW Amarok being a new style vehicle with aesthetic molded plastic bumpers it wasn’t suitable to just whip this off and replace with a fabricated steel bumper, and so a discreet winch mount was designed to fit neatly behind the bumper so all that you see of the winch is the roller fairlead.

For this particular conversion a Champion C9500EWX 12v winch was chosen as they’re compact and exceptional value for money with some fantastic features, such as wireless remote, double sealed motor and gearbox, steel cased sealed contactor, a high output reversible 4.6HP motor and 4.3 tons worth of pulling capacity. Whats more, the Champion C9500EWX comes with a stainless steel roller fairlead as standard so there wouldn’t be any ugly rusting of chrome rollers from weathering.

If you want any further information on the VW Amarok winch convertion, contact our winch sales team on: 01274 680744

Alternatively, send an email to: sales@autoliftuk.com
