The Carbon Offroad Scout Pro RS9-S (Short Drum): Pure Race Power
Maximum Muscle. Minimum Footprint. When you’re piloting a race buggy, UTV, or specialized ATV, every millimeter and every gram counts. The Scout Pro RS9-S is the short-drum evolution of our high-speed series—designed specifically for tight spaces where you refuse to compromise on recovery speed or pulling power.
The RS9-S Advantage
Don’t let the compact size fool you. This is the same 8.0HP powerhouse found in our full-size rigs, shortened down for elite racing applications. With a performance-tuned 80:1 gear ratio, the RS9-S delivers the fastest line speeds in the UTV/Buggy class.
Built on our ultra-lightweight chassis, it comes standard with 24m (80ft) of 8mm Spectra™ Fiber synthetic rope. It’s the ultimate "insurance policy" for competitors who need to winch fast, win big, and keep their front end light and flickable.
Combatable with Carbon Offroad Air Freespool Clutch Upgrade, specifically designed for use with Carbon Offroad 12K and Scout Pro winches.

Builder & Racer Note
The RS9-S features a shortened drum and chassis to fit narrow mounting locations common in race buggies and UTVs. Despite its compact 385mm (15.16 inch) length, it retains the full-sized 8.0HP motor. Ensure your mounting plate or winch cradle is rated for 9,000lb (4,080kg) loads, as this unit packs significantly more punch than standard UTV-class winches.

Great product! The orange really stands out. When doing recoveries with individuals not familiar with recovery equipment it is great to say "the orange thing" and they instantly spot it. Fit and finish is perfect, hook it large enough to hook into any shackle or recovery point you need.
Hi Theresa, we're thrilled to hear you love the visibility and quality of the Mega Pro Winch Hook! Thanks for sharing your experience and for choosing Carbon Offroad USA.

Love my new 12K winch and Mega Pro winch hook. Easy install and everything arrived in great condition.

Feels well made and durable. Is beefy and compliments my ride. There is one thing I would change though. The pin clip. I think a pin that is enclosed within the hook and held in place with an internal c clip would have a less chance of getting caught on something as the pin with the external c clip does.

The Mega Pro winch hook came with a recently purchased Carbon 12000. It is a high quality hook and a welcomed upgrade. The hook looks great and mounts flat and tight against the fairlead. It has a good quality paint coating for corrosion resistance. The rubber base pad is glued on and it seems that attaching with counter sunk screws might be better for longevity. However I’ve had no issues with rubber base as provided on the hook. I am very pleased that Carbon Offroad chooses to supply their winches with the upgraded hook. On a side note the supplied winch rope thimble is reinforced. Thats a small detail that sometimes goes unnoticed.

I was shocked when I opened the box and the winch was in an awesome carrying bag. The quality is top knotch and the orange matches my Mojave perfectly!

Took around 2 minutes to swap over and it's been brilliant. Sits snug against the fairlead and keeps the rope out of harm's way. Also, it fits easily behind my flip up reg plate.
I can get both loops of my tree trunk protector in and out of it easily which was a struggle with my stock hook.
Definitely recommend this to anyone looking to speed up and simplify using their winch, and to get their winch rope away from the bash plate if you currently have your hook connected to a recovery point 👍🏻
Finally ... My entire rig is now considered exotic because I chose the lamborghini-green coloured hook 🤣

Simple easy install. Tidies the front up nicely. No more climbing under car to retrieve winch hook.

It’s nothing special. The Carbon experience was disappointing
Hi Don, we're sorry to hear you were disappointed. Due to the time difference between Australia and the USA, your order was placed on the 19th, and on the 20th, you changed your mind about the order. By the time we received your message, the Utah warehouse had already dispatched the shipment. You were given the option to return it, but we never heard back from you.
