1978 Ramcharger Aka The "Death Charger"

[taz_man440]

so what did it run ya? brand?  i went tonight to help a friend out that sunk his tractor after all this rain, then he got his 2005 dodge 4 door 4x4 down trying to get to the tractor.  My old ramcharger got to em easily, but that OLD winch even doubled wouldn't do anything....  We ended up using the hi-lift & stuffing logs under the tires.... then used the hi-lift as a come-along & got the truck out that way...  So, looks like that is my next upgrade....

a lot of us are using the harbor freight badlands winches right now. They seem to do pretty good so far.

Can it be used on top of the sale prices??

[SixGun]

I've used the 20% off coupon before when its the sale price in the store.  If its a coupon sale, they won't let you double coupons.  I have seen the price drop on occasion.  If the price is $349 and you use a 20% coupon, it is actually cheaper than $299.

Ok Will, I found a coupon for the 12K winch for $299. It is good through 6/15/2015.
Models 68142/ 61256/ 60813/ 61889
