This was brought up by member rdgcolt. I’ve experienced these issues with some of my Viper winches.
Why upgrading *some* ATV winches to synthetic is a really bad idea | superwinchexperts
Has happened to 2 of my 4 personal winches
MAX4500
Attachment 25743
Midnight MAX3500
Attachment 25744
And also happened to another winch I installed for my father in law on his Honda. That’s 3 out of 12 winches I’ve bought/installed for people.
