VR Evo 8-S 12V Winch by Warn

The Warn VR Evo 8-S 12V Winch is purpose-built for lighter 4WDs, Jeeps and SUVs, providing dependable recovery power when mud, rocks, ice or deep ruts stop progress.

Its IP68-rated construction, series-wound motor and three-stage planetary gear train are engineered for harsh conditions. The synthetic rope keeps weight down and is easier to handle than steel cable.

A two-in-one wired and wireless remote provides flexible operation, while the relocatable control pack supports low-profile installations. The result is a practical recovery winch for smaller rigs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size vehicles is the VR Evo 8-S suited to?

The VR Evo 8-S is engineered for lighter 4WDs, Jeeps and SUVs. With a rated line pull of 8,000lb (3,629kg), it has capacity for most smaller rigs running standard accessories. For a full-size ute or heavily loaded wagon, consider the 10-S or 12-S.

Will it fit my bull bar?

The VR Evo 8-S uses the standard 254mm x 114.3mm mounting bolt pattern, which is compatible with the majority of winch-ready bull bars on the Australian market. Always confirm your bar's load rating supports an 8,000lb winch before fitting.

What comes in the box?

The winch comes with the VR Evo 8-S unit, 9.5mm x 27.4m synthetic rope pre-spooled on the drum, a hawse fairlead, a two-in-one wired and wireless remote, battery leads, and mounting hardware.

Does it have a wireless remote?

Yes. The included two-in-one remote works both wired with a 3.5m lead and wirelessly, so you can operate the winch from inside the cab or from a safe distance during recovery.

How waterproof is the VR Evo 8-S?

The entire winch construction is rated IP68, meaning it is sealed against continuous water immersion and dust ingress. It is built for muddy, wet and creek-crossing conditions.

What battery does this winch need?

Warn recommends a minimum 650 CCA battery for winching. If your vehicle has a smaller battery or runs many accessories, adding a dual battery system is worth considering.

What warranty does the VR Evo 8-S come with?

The Warn VR Evo range is backed by a limited lifetime mechanical warranty and a 7-year electrical warranty.

Can the control pack be relocated?

Yes. The control pack can be repositioned for low-profile installations where the standard position would foul the bonnet or other accessories.
