Faster. Stronger. The easiest to use. Smittybilt's all-new XRC Gen3 winch was designed from the ground up with innovative, user-friendly features and improved fuel efficiency. The 7.0 horsepower motor benefits from a 12% increase in average line speed over its Gen2 predecessor, adding more speed and power with less AMP consumption at the load. The ergonomic remote has a charge indicator warning system, so you'll always know how much your gear can withstand. Winching in the dark is also a snap with the remote control's built-in flashlight. If additional light is needed, a 12 volt power terminal is located on the control box. Two magnets are built into the controller for easy placement on any metal surface, leaving it out of the way when not needed. A high visibility clutch lever features large letters, allowing you to see if your winch is engaged / free at a glance. A stylish bulletproof vest can be detached or used to customize your winch to suit your vehicle. The XRC Gen3 winch is available with 9.5k and 12k load capacity options, and the COMP series upgrade includes a synthetic cable and aluminum fairlead. Buy with confidence, these winches are backed by a lifetime mechanical warranty, 5 year electrical warranty and legendary Smittybilt customer service.
