Just flip the activator switch to compressor mode and discover the can-do attitude of the PowerPlant. Powered by a 4.6 hp motor, the PowerPlant puts out 5 cfm @ 90 psi, with a built-in air reservoir and intercooler. That translates to airing up four 35" tires from 8 psi to 35 psi in 8 minutes. Or less. And with the PowerPlant, there's no labor-intensive compressor set up: it's part of our standard winch mounting process.

Switch to winch mode and the PowerPlant turns on the latest in legendary WARN winch technology. You get the raw pulling power of our Gen II Series Wound motor, plus the proven reliability of the 3-stage planetary gear train and a newly designed contactor that's rugged and reliable. In other words, WARN to the rescue, time after time.

The PowerPlant is available in two configurations: HP for off-road vehicles for enthusiasts who demand faster line speed, and HD for heavier trucks for longer motor duty cycles.

WARN PowerPlant - unique, exclusive, patent-pending technology. Engineered and built by Warn Industries, the world leader in off-road and truck performance products.

that is trick!

Looks like a 9.5ti with a tumor.

not sure if i'd want to submerge it all that often though. Any idea what the line pull strength is?

Not too bad for the price I guess, $2060 at national, but it would be 10x the unit if it had a 8274 as the winch

$2k for a winch is f-ing stupid. There's no reason the 9.5 ti or xp is $1.7k either. Cablesmurf's got a smrt (yes... SMRT) thing going with the TMax.
