The 7.0 horsepower motor boasts an average line speed increase of 12% over its Gen2 predecessor, adding more speed and power with less AMP draw at load. The ergonomic remote controller has a Load Indicator System, so you will always know how much your equipment can handle. Winching in dark conditions is also a breeze with the remote’s built-in flashlight. If additional light is needed, a 12-volt power post 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-visual clutch lever features large lettering, allowing you to see whether your winch is engaged or free spooled at a glance. Stylish body armor can be detached or used to customize your winch to your vehicle. The XRC Gen3 12K winch is available with a Steel Cable Roller Fairlead option or a Comp Series Synthetic Cable with Hawse Fairlead.
