Sherpa 4x4 'Mustang' - 9,500Lb Winch

Sherpa 4x4 'Mustang' – 9,500lb 4x4 Winch

The Sherpa 4x4 Mustang is a high-quality, heavy-duty 4WD winch rated to 9,500lb. Powered by a strong 6.0HP motor and 3-stage planetary gearbox, it delivers reliable pulling power for everyday off-road recovery and touring applications.

Available in 12V or 24V, the Mustang can be supplied with 28m of synthetic rope or steel cable and comes fitted with genuine Albright International electrics for dependable performance. With an IP68-rated design, it is built to handle harsh, muddy and wet off-road conditions.

Why Are Sherpa 4x4 Winches Different?

Sherpa 4x4 winches are engineered for serious recovery work. Built from quality components and developed through years of experience in winching and lifting equipment, they are designed to deliver reliable pulling power in harsh Australian and off-road conditions.

• Tried & Tested
  Sherpa 4x4 winches have been developed through years of practical experience, testing and continuous improvement. From muddy rainforest recoveries to remote outback conditions, Sherpa winches are built to perform when reliability matters most.

• Tough & Durable Construction
  The Sherpa 4x4 Brumby is designed to withstand demanding environments. Quality materials, including 316 stainless steel fittings where specified, provide excellent resistance to corrosion, mud, water and harsh operating conditions.

• Gearbox-Mounted Braking System
  Unlike many winches that locate the brake inside the drum, Sherpa 4x4 uses a braking system incorporated into the gearbox. This helps minimise heat build-up within the drum, making the design particularly well suited to synthetic winch rope and reducing unnecessary heat exposure during operation.

• Quality CNC-Cut Gearing
  Sherpa 4x4 specifies high-quality CNC-machined gears manufactured from billet steel rather than relying on lower-cost sintered gear construction. This produces a strong, durable drivetrain designed to handle the high loads associated with serious recovery work.

• Premium Electrical Components
  Sherpa 4x4 winches are equipped with heavy-duty, fully sealed genuine Albright International contactors. As the electrical switching system is a critical part of any winch, Sherpa uses proven components designed for dependable operation in demanding conditions.

• IP68 Rated Protection
  Sherpa 4x4 winches are IP68 rated, helping protect critical components against dust, water and mud ingress when operating in harsh off-road environments.

• Powerful Series-Wound Motors
  Sherpa winches use high-performance series-wound motors designed to deliver strong pulling power and withstand demanding recovery conditions. High copper content within the motor windings, combined with a robust frame and gearbox design, provides dependable performance under load.

• Serious Pulling Power
  Sherpa 4x4 winches are designed for users who want greater recovery capacity and performance in reserve. When conditions become difficult and loads increase, having additional winching capacity can make a significant difference.

• Straightforward Installation
  Sherpa 4x4 winches use common industry mounting patterns and are designed to suit many popular winch-compatible bull bars and mounting systems. Installation hardware and components are supplied to make fitting as straightforward as possible for professional installers and capable home mechanics.

  Always confirm the available mounting space, bolt pattern and winch dimensions before installation. Detailed dimensions and diagrams are available on our website.

• Hawse or Roller Fairlead Options
  Depending on the configuration selected, the Brumby can be supplied with an aluminium hawse fairlead for synthetic rope or a roller fairlead for steel cable. These help guide the winch line and reduce abrasion, particularly during angled recoveries. Offset aluminium hawse fairleads may also be available for selected installations.

• Warranty & Spare Parts Support
  Sherpa 4x4 Brumby winches are backed by a 5 Year Warranty, giving you confidence in your investment. A comprehensive and affordable range of replacement and service parts is also available to help keep your winch operating for years to come.

Built for Serious Recovery

A winch is equipment you depend on when things have already gone wrong. Sherpa 4x4 focuses on quality motors, gearing, electrical components, sealing and braking systems to produce winches that are ready for demanding recovery situations.

Important: Winch rope or cable must be correctly tensioned and wound onto the drum under load before use. Refer to the Winch Cable/Rope section of the owner's manual for the correct installation, first-use and tensioning procedure.

Genuine Albright Solenoids

All Sherpa 4x4 winches come with genuine Albright solenoids! Incorporated into our electrics is a custom made version of the DC88P solenoid designed specifically by Albright International for the Sherpa 4x4 control boxes. With 70 years experienced in contactor design, these are by far the best winch solenoids available. Capable of handling up to 800 amps, almost twice the maximum capacity of the winch. Contact plating is second to none, increasing the duty cycle over other winches. As seen in our water submersion testing videos the Albright solenoids can be run for significant time under water without moisture ingress. The cheap Chinese solenoids used in the majority of winches will fail under extreme conditions and under high amperage load.

What is included in the Sherpa winch kits:

Sherpa winches are supplied as a kit with all the items required for a standard winch installation. See the images here showing the parts included for synthetic rope and steel cable models.

Synthetic Rope Models	Steel Cable Models

Included:

-Winch (fitted with either synthetic rope or steel cable as per your choice)

-Aluminium hawse or roller fairlead (synthetic rope winches will have an aluminium hawse, steel cable winches will come with a roller fairlead)

-Control box with internal Albright solenoid

-Wired hand remote (wireless remotes are an optional extra)

-All cabling (5 cables are already incorporated into the control box, a separate earth cable is provided)

-Winch hook with strap

-Winch and control box mounting bolts

-Control box mounting brackets (In most cases the control box is flush mounted to the bulbar using bolts internal to the control box housing and DOES NOT require a bracket. See the winch manual on the Sherpa Data Sheets page for instructions on mounting. The brackets included allow you to mount the control box directly on top of the winch by attaching to the winch cross members).
