Not absolutly positive but the parts may be harder to get, "i heard", compared to a warn.

lowrad said (I love my SuperWinch...as I recall the Titan's seem to be pretty beefy units BUT I don't think there as "rated" as they say...I.E the 12000lbs is not 12000lbs uin my opinion....cause that one major stuck that Adam had at Minies he had Ben and Jano poth pulling and they didn't budge him till I showed up and hooked on too...then that was three winches and if there woulda been video you woulda seen mine doing alot of the work.....the 12000lbs Titan's couldn't keep up with me......I was pulling him myself for a couple sec. at a time till they caught up when I realized that there lines had slack)
i find the 12000 not as good as they say , i was pulling off and on for like an hour before i called everyone to help, and the only way i found the weinch to have any good pull was to only use the last two wounds on the spoool.very slow speed though.. buy the time we had got him out the weinch could only pull its own cable in...... i have not tried it with a snach pully yet thought going to try it this summer as i got one off bud....will write up on it again than to do a up date..

I'm not sure about the Titan either but because they run slower I can see that you might feel you were doing most of the pulling & that when you were added on ... things started to move ... just might have needed a few thousand lbs pull extra ... sort of like you & me teeter=tottering ... then I add Bud ... nothing but once Bad hops on ... Lowrad is in the air... & that is scary
As I have said ... the heat shutoff on mine has kicked in several times ( Camp NL ) & I had to wait perhaps a minute for it too cool down. I didn't think the pull was that bad at the time but as a safety feature for the unit, appreciated.
Maybe this summer we can do some testing ... get a Brown Bros. really stuck & take turns ... Johnson's hole west side or that hole off the Hydro line heading into Killer Lake. Start with Bud's Champion, try my Titan & then your Superwinch, Bad's Warn.
Careful using your snatch block ... Waggy may snap like a chip.
"Snatch Block" snounds like a sexual tool or movement.

Actually I think it was JP a couple months ago I seen they did a test at Moab or something with BAD's moddle of Warn against my SuperWinch moddle and they said that at the end both of the winches were pretty much equal...just the SuperWinch was like only 2/3's the cost of the Warn...SO that would equal aout to about 4-5 hundred bucks that you save My two cents....although I like BAD's rope on the his winch....made pullin out line much nicer
