The Tensioner for Bulldog Winch Standard Series Truck Winches - 8,000 lbs to 12,000 lbs - Wire Rope # BDW20234 and the Cable Tensioner for ComeUp DV-18 Off-Road Winch # CU882038 are similar but they are designed for different weight capacities and the ComeUp is really designed only for that specific winch.

I haven't seen the ComeUp Tensioner used on any other winch so I recommend going with the Bulldog option (if it fits your capacities) as it is more of a general fit that will work with a Badland Winch.
