Hi guys,
I never have one or use one before.
I plan to use a winch occasionally to do work on the land but most likely it would be use for winching my ATV when it stuck or when my partner is stuck. One of my friend want to create new trails or go where no one ever gone before. He already has a Polaris HD 3500 nylon on his Polaris 500 HO.
I would prefer spending less money if I can. Does it worth to by a steel cable?
The Polaris dealer told me the steel cable is durable. I’m not sure. Some say after using a few times a steel cable it splices easily. It is more dangerous when this one snap. I could damage your vehicle or yourself.
Nylon required more maintenance, is it has durable as Steel? I’m not a strong believer in synthetic. As example, If one day I have to pull a tree and I’m scraping the cable on a sharpie rock. Would this cable will survive? Mae be I’m wrong to think this way.
Should I go for Polaris HD 2500 or Polaris HD 3500? Nylon /steel ?
If you can tell me your experience or opinion that will help me to me more selective.
Best regards
