Will This Budget 13K Winch Hold Up? OPENROAD Winch Review, Install, and Test

OPENROAD sent me their Panther Series 2S 13K winch and did a full review, install, and test. Installed behind the grille of my 1972 Jeep Commando the Panther series winch shows a lot of potential as it effortlessly recovered an ambulance winched the Jeep up a tree. OPENROAD provides everything you need to get set up and although it is priced very low, its specs are comparable to the top brands on the market!
