Closer Look

The Bushranger COVERT is an innovative winch designed for a seamless and unobtrusive installation, completely concealing the control box for a clean, integrated look. It is the perfect choice for users who desire a powerful recovery system without the traditional, bulky externally-mounted control unit.

The COVERT achieves its unique design through a fully integrated Motor Control Unit, which incorporates a high-efficiency Albright contactor directly connected to the motor. This synergistic design not only creates a more compact and versatile fitment but also improves motor efficiency and simplifies installation.

Engineered and proven in Australia, the COVERT features a powerful series-wound motor, a robust 4-stage gearbox, and a zero-drag braking system for 100% load holding. With its tough aluminium alloy housings and dual-connection remote, it delivers rugged durability and high performance in a sleek, low-profile package.

This comprehensive kit includes the powerful Bushranger Covert 12,000lb Electric Winch with synthetic rope, along with an essential spacer kit for hawse/fairlead and a complete winch installation kit, providing everything you need for a robust and discreet recovery setup.

The Bushranger Covert is the first Australian designed 4x4 winch without an externally mounted control box, delivering an ultra-efficient all-in-one motor control unit paired to a tuned 5.7hp 12V motor. Built with top-tier components and backed by rigorous Australian testing, it offers proven reliability and longevity in the harshest environments. Its compact, synergistic design provides fast line speeds and rugged durability for a versatile, unobtrusive fitment.
