I have two complete Vic Hicky Sidewinder winches. These make a very clean install on a full sized vehicle. I want $1000 for the pair or $600 each. Shipping is a pain.

I wll have to get pictures and have some with a red star post them, or I could print them and mail to you directly. The winches are in good condition with no rust. They were advertised in magazines at the time showing a Blazer hanging from a tree. The big selling point was the spool lays horizontal and does not foul as bad, plus it fits under chassis

sidewinders are actully very good, simple winches, the down side is the company went outa buisness years ago, and parts are very hard to come by.

I have run one on a dually (ranch truck) since 1972 and my high paid julios and ranch kids havn't broke it. I use it to pull out small dozers (D4, 450), buried in bogs w/tackle blocks/big tree anchor which is hell on equipment. Advance Adaptor bought out the company and parts are not available. These are very good winches.

Thankyou Seabass. The mounting plate in the middle is off a Ramcharger. The top part bolts behind the license plate, These were made so you could use you stock chrome bumper.
