    Top Winch Manufacturers: Mile Marker, WARN, and More

    Off-roading can make many of us feel invincible as we tear through rough, rugged terrains, but even the best of us will fall into an occasional scrape. Whether it's a particularly large ditch or a mud pit, off-roading expertise will only get you so far before you need a winch to take over. This compact piece of machinery will do what your large truck, Jeep, or SUV couldn't. So even though you won't use them often (knock on wood), winches are something you just can't go without. Here's an overview of some of the top winch manufacturers to help you decide which one is right for you.

     
    Mile Marker Winches
    Mile Marker Winches How do you find a winch manufacturer you can trust? Here's a good tip: go with the one that makes winches for the US Military. In fact, the hydraulic Mile Marker winch is the only one that is approved for Humvees in the US Military, making it a great choice for anyone who's excited to do some serious off-roading. Although it's their patented hydraulic winch that they're most known for, Mile Marker also offers a full line of electric, ATV, industrial, and utility winches.

    Featured Product: Mile Marker Hl12000 Winch
    These winches tap into the power steering pump on your vehicle for an unlimited power source. As long as the vehicle stays on, so will the winch. It will continue to work even if it's encased in mud or flooded with water.

     
    WARN Winches
    WARN Winches In 1959, it was Warn Industries that developed the very first recreational winch. WARN winches have been a staple for off-roaders ever since. They've maintained their spotless reputation over the years by simply being one of the best. Time and again, WARN winches outperform the competition in head-to-head tests. Whether you need a winch for your Jeep, truck, SUV, ATV, or even a commercial application, Warn Industries has you covered.

    Featured Product: WARN M8000 Winch
    The M8000 WARN winch is one of the most popular choices because it's the right size for the right price. It has enough pulling power for most common trucks, Jeep and SUVs while still being compact and affordable. You'll be able to rely on it for years.

     
    Smittybilt Winches
    Smittybilt Winches Generally, the best people to take off-roading advice from are fellow off-road enthusiasts. Basil Smith built his company, eventually named "Smittybilt," on that exact premise. Smith was one of the original 4WD enthusiasts and his dream was to create a business that would make Jeep and truck parts for his fellow off-roaders. One of many fantastic products to come out of that was Smittybilt winches. These heavy-duty products deliver again and again.

    Featured Product: Smittybilt XRC8 Winch
    There aren't any fancy tricks here. Very simply, XRC8 Smittybilt winches have all the best features you could want in a standard winch. Enjoy a 5.5HP series wound motor, 172.8:1 gear ratio, 8000lbs of line pull, and a reliable roller fairlead.

     
    Superwinch Winches
    Superwinch Winches Although there's nothing particularly stand-out and spectacular about Superwinch winches, there really doesn't need to be. Instead of adding lots of features that most people don't even need, they've kept their focus on making simple, reliable, high performance winches that they can offer at an affordable price. 39 years and 2 ½ million winches later, they've proven that this is a formula for success.

    Featured Product: Superwinch EP9.0 Winch
    There are 2 things that make EP9.0 Superwinch winches an excellent choice. First, they have the speed to get the job done quickly. Second, they have a compact design so they stay out of the way when not in use. And lastly, they power both in and out to provide the most convenience for you.
