I've had no problems with my Polaris winch. I wish I would have switch sooner to the syn. rope though, its way better than cable!!!!!

I believe the Polaris winch is a Warn.  I run a 3500 Gorilla winch with the synthetic rope. Never had an issue.

Yes you are correct Keeter!!! The Polaris winch is made by Warn.
