The cheapest option is to find an auction for $475 (free shipping)
The $425 auction charges $51 and change for shipping, so it's slightly more :<).
For an extra $50 or so you can also order a snatch block, 10' tree strap (with case) and D-Ring from them and pay the shipping difference (~$16) and they'll put it all in the same box for you.
When you call, they answer their phone.

Not to sound stupid but what is the difference between winches like Warn that are $1500 and are self recovery and cheaper ones? Are all winches "self recovery"? What is the difference between the type of series wound and what type of solenoid mount do I want? There are a lot of variable that go into choosing a winch. A lot of times I don't know the difference in which would be the better variable for me. I have been looking on here for a winch post break down on everything to take into consideration. Has anyone one found anything like that?

Won my auction for 430 and to the door it is 462.00 total. I would recommend bidding instead of doing the buy now option. I bid 22hrs before it ended and I was the only bid. Can't wait to get my new rock hard stubby and winch installed. Also you email them a pic of it installed they will send you the neoprene cover for the cost of shipping and handling 6.95
