Cliff test - Runva Winch 11XP on my Toyota Land Cruiser Prado

I wanted to test my new winch to see what it could handle as a direct pull - how the 100% load holding brake worked, if it could lift and lower my Toyota Land Cruiser Prado on a near vertical face and generally how it worked and acted in these conditions. Enjoy and thank you Michael at Runva New Zealand mmc4x4.co.nz

Now that’s a test of all tests. Well done.

ha ha , cheers man!

[@rustypanels5719]

Well done, you have proven to me that I'm not the only knucklehead in the world that would test a winch that way. I just bought the same winch to put on my 4x4. Glad to see it in action. You've saved me from scratching my paintwork. Cheers Brother!

[@jamienicoll6749]

Ha ha cool, that it saved your paint work!

[@mottthehoople693]

years a go I saw a similar thing done with a Toyota HJ75 fitted with a high mount 15000lb Warn...The winch lifted the cruiser straight up without a problem

[@TheJNAdventures]

Yeah cool, it was pretty straight forward in the end. Worked well

[@michaelcutugno7228]

you surely test your equipment to its fullest niiice

[@Danielvegan1]

Dude yur a Madman.... love it, mine is coming today! will have it installed on my Jeep Tj next week, cheers.

Bloody, that's one way to thoroughly test a winch! Thanks.

[@TheJNAdventures]

Ha cheers, I'm glad it was useful.

Waiting for mine to arrive for my December 2019 Prado.👍🇦🇺

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! Excellent winch on specs, quality, price, warranty. It doesn't get any better than this vertical hold strength.

[@TheJNAdventures]

yeah for sure it was a good test and gives me a lot of confidence in it.

[@jacquesaubin387]

is the winch just pulling is it also unrolling without pulling the cable?

[@TheJNAdventures]

Thanks for replying here and explaining.

I'd have run engine to charge battery.

[@TheJNAdventures]

Small length time for batter use, so no issue, and I don't think one would have much oil pressure at that angle

[@michaelnugara1]

How did your battery finish up? Thanks for the vid. They look pretty good

[@emmanueldii627]

thats how u test a winch. lol 🤦‍♂️

[@conmanumber1]

A American made Warn will really kick arse. It's the absolute benchmark for winches and the most copied.

[@Megahexen2]

How come American made Jeep is shit quality and at the bottom of bench marking but American made warn is top in the bench marking 😅
