Looking for early Warn winch solenoids

May 26, 2007 1 Replies

Almost done rebuilding my newly acquired Warn 8274. Just need a couple of solenoids - and Warn doesn't supply them any more - just as part of the full control pack (at approx $250 ...yikes!)



I understand that typical "starter solenoids" like on my 83 CJ7 are NOT designed to handle the current load needed for winching - and will burnout / fuse together pretty quickly, with potentially diasterous results!.



Anyone got a lead on where I can get some - or thoughts on a suitable alternate / replacement solenoid?



Thanks

Try a starter shop. They usually stock a variety of solenoids. A local one had one for my 20-ish Tensen TX-2.
