Just saw Superwinch post this on FB Am I reading this wrong or did they just at least temporarily go out of business?
Effective February 22, 2019, Superwinch Group, Inc. ceased operations in Portland, OR. However, this is not the end of the Superwinch brand. Westin Automotive Products, Inc., headquartered in San Dimas, CA, is in the process of acquiring specific assets, IP rights, and branding of SUPERWINCH. Westin looks forward to re-establishing the Superwinch brand’s business relationships with our automotive and industrial partners and is eager to integrate SUPERWINCH with the Westin family of products.

During the transition process, SUPERWINCH will be unable to accept new orders, process warranty claims, or make inventory transactions of any kind. Customer service coverage may be limited as well, but we will do our best to respond to customer inquiries in a timely manner. We would like to thank our loyal customers for standing by us through this process and hope to one day meet and exceed your expectations for the standards our brand has established over its many years.

I was in contact with them about Fall Crawl and all seemed well. I went to return a phone call to them and the whole phone system was down. So I think it was a surprise to there employees also.
They have been gone from Ct for a bit now. Company was bought and moved to Oregon last year I believe.

Was thinking to myself, Oh SH!T I have a SuperWinch...

I just went to the Superwinch site and it looks like it's up and operational. I think another company just bought them out...
