Sounds like a good plan. The new spare tire winch I bought for $150 back in February broke and it didn't even have one full cycle on it. So it would have broke for the tire technician too even if he unwound it by hand. The winch stuck with the tire in the air while I was trying to lower it, that was a PITA to remove the tire like that not to mention the loss of space among other negative impacts.Spend an extra $40 and get the solid metal lugs of Amazon? I got the Eisen brand ones and they've worked well. Or pick up the gorilla ones from summit racing but they're much more expensive.
I'm going to give Roverlandparts the benefit of the doubt and ask if they will exchange it, but I'm not hopeful. Its a ****** when someone takes your money and hands you a broken POS. I hope they stand behind it.
