Warrior Winches’ Samurai Series is now in its second generation, available in a wide range of sizes and variants, and in both 12V and 24V options. Every model in the series features a revolutionary external brake, designed to reduce drum heat build-up and ensure the winch can hold its full load during stops and payout. The Samurai Series is the perfect winch for 4×4 vehicles, larger trailers, or professional recovery operations. We’ve equipped the series with features such as a double-sealed series wound motor, a powerful 600A silver contactor, IP68-rated electronics, stainless steel mounting brackets and fairlead, and a steel planetary gear. All our winches are both load and brake tested before packaging, and with a three-year warranty, you can trust you’re getting the highest possible quality.
The Samurai 8000 is the smallest model in the series, but it’s more than capable. It’s commonly used on car trailers, smaller recovery applications, and a wide variety of 4×4 vehicles. This tough workhorse pulls 3.6 tons and is fast for its size. This model comes with 29 meters of synthetic rope, making it lightweight and easy to use—and everything you need to operate the winch is included, including a pre-installed wireless remote control. The IST600 mounting plate is available as an accessory.
