• Recommended Hand Winch For 2,090 lb Pro Craft 180 Boat
  I did some research on the 1998 18 foot Pro Craft 180 and from what I could find it weighs about 2,090 lbs. If your trailer does not have rollers or wood bunks you will need a winch that is rated for half the weight of the boat. I recommend the The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14725 with a 2,000 lb capacity which would be a bit more than you need. The ZINC plating will resist rust and 2 speed operation. It uses a polyester strap for which I recommend part # DL24249 which has a 4,000...

• Boat Trailer Winch Recommendation for 2,400 lb Console Boat
  Generally when picking out a winch for a boat trailer the ratio is 2 to 1 meaning you would need a winch with roughly half the capacity as the weight of the boat. With good rollers and a short winching distance the ratio increases to 3 to 1, but with long winching distances and wooden bunks like what you currently have the ratio is 1 to 1. The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14725 should work well for you. It has a 2,000 lb capacity and would make easy work of your 2,400 lb console boat.

• Hand Winch Recommendation for Building a Homemade Log Arch
  You could use just about any type of hand winch you would like to build a log arch. You will need to determine the capacity that you will need to lift the logs you will be cutting. Having been around a farm most of my life, I would think that a 2,000 lb capacity winch would be sufficient, since you will not need to lift the whole weight of the log with it and if you are cutting fire wood you could reduce the length of the log. I posted a link to all of the 2,000 lb winches that we stock...

• Boat Trailer Winch Recommendation for a 1982 Sea Ray 22-1/2 Foot Boat
  Sea Ray made a lot of boats in the 1982 model year. Models listed at 22 feet top out at just over 4,000 pounds. Since the trailer you are using has rollers you can go with a winch that is rated lower than the actual weight of the boat. However, going with a higher capacity winch will make it easier on the winch so it will last longer and easier on you when cranking in the boat. For marine applications I recommend a winch that either comes with a strap or that can be used with a strap....

• Using Winch to Hold Boat in Place on Trailer During Travel
  The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14725 referenced in your question has a freewheel design that will not actually hold a load in the forward or reverse directions. To hold a load in place you will want to go with a brake winch. For a similarly rated modeI recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL15721 that features a 2,500 pound weight capacity and an automatic braking mechanism that will lock a load in place. The elongated mounting holes on the plate will allow compatibility with...

• Can the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch, # DL10970 be Used with a Strap
  The Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch, # DL10970, is designed for a cable no wider than 9/32 inches. If you had a strap that narrow, it could work, but the winch is not really designed for that application. A comparable winch that is rated for use with a strap is the Dutton-Lainson Trailer Winch, # DL14725. This winch has a drum capacity that can handle a strap 38 feet in length.

• How to Choose a Replacement Hand Winch
  The correct winch for your needs will depend on several factors, such as what you're using the winch for, where you're using it and the amount of weight of the load. If by 'DL 2000' winch, you're meaning a Dutton-Lainson winch capable of pulling 2000 lbs, the # DL14725 would be an okay choice. However, that 2000 lb capacity is with one layer of rope/cable wrapped around the drum. With each subsequent layer, the capacity is reduced by 10 %. This is a two speed winch, with a gear ratio of...

• Replacement For Dutton-Lainson Winch DL2000
  The Dutton-Lainson DL2000 is indeed different as it is an earlier model of the DL2000A; I checked with Dutton-Lainson and they do not offer replacement parts for the older DL2000, and said that parts are not interchangeable between models. So while I know that is not the news you were looking to hear, the best option is to replace your DL2000 with the updated DL2000A, which is the following part number: - Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14725 This is compatible with either the Hand Winch...

• Recommendation to Replace Shelby 5408 Trailer Winch
  If the gear is broken on your existing Shelby winch, I recommend simply replacing the entire unit, as Shelby is no longer in business and replacement parts are not readily available. To replace your Shelby 5408 model, I recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch with TUFFPLATE Finish # DL14725. This is very similar to your winch that features a 2,000 pound capacity and 2 speeds for horizontal pulling applications. The zinc TUFFPLATE finish will also do a great job of preventing rust and corrosion....

• How to Reverse the Winch Strap Feed from Top to Bottom on a Worm Gear or Standard Trailer Winch
  To get the cable to come off of the Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch, item # DL10974, you would need to crank the winch until the cable is all the way unwound from the winch drum and then continue cranking in the same direction until the cable is wound back onto the drum in the opposite direction it was wound before. This will reverse the feed of the cable from top to bottom or vice versa and will also reverse the direction the handle needs to be turned to winch a load with the winch. If...

• Availability of Shorter Winch Handle For Dutton-Lainson Winch Model DL1800A # DL15504
  The handle on your Dutton Lainson Winch Model DL1800A is 9-1/2" long so there are two short handle options. The # DL70336 which is 6" long, or the # DL70334 which is 8-1/2" long. Keep in mind that the shorter the handle is the less leverage you will have and the harder it will be to winch your boat onto the trailer. I recommend going with the longest winch handle you can fit for the easiest time using the winch. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

• Comparing The Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14627 And # DL14725
  The bottom plate for the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL14627 is 4-3/4" wide x 5-1/2" long, while the bottom plate of the # DL14725 is slightly larger at 4-3/4" wide x 6-5/8" long. The diameter of the spools are exactly the same at 6" so it's really just going to come down to whether you want single-speed or two-speed. I personally would choose the two-speed # DL14725 for the extra 200lbs of capacity and second speed for those days where you're dog tired from a long day out on the lake but...

• Recommended Strap for the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch DL14725
  Yes, the Hand Winch Strap with Safety Hook part # DL24251 will work just fine with the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL14725. However, please note that you will be limited to the weight capacity of the winch which is 2,000 lbs because it is lower than that of the strap which is 4,000 lbs but this won't cause any issues it is just something that you need to be conscious of.
