  • Available Types of Electric and Hand Winches
  • Electric winches can require substantial battery power, but this will vary depending on the actual weight of the load.

The long 50-foot cable on this winch might allow you more mounting options. If you find you prefer the simplicity of a non-electric hand winch you can spend a lot less and...

  • The best match that we have for a 5 gauge wire is going to be the Quick Connects, # BDW20018. It fits 3 to 5 gauge wire. The other options we have would be too small (6 to 10 gauge) so going larger would be the way to go.

  • Availability of a Winch Wiring Kit to Connect a Winch on the Front of a Ford F-150
  • The Superwinch Trailer and Vehicle Electric Winch Wiring Kit, for up to 16.5K Winches, # BDW20207, will work well to install a wiring connection at the rear of your Ford F-150.

  • Front Winch Mount Options for 2004 Toyota 4Runner
  • I have a couple solutions that may work for you, since, like you pointed out, there are no custom fit front mount hitches, winch mounts or bumpers for your 2004 Toyota 4Runner. One option is to use the Bulldog Winch Universal Winch Mounting Plate, # BDW20008. You will need to find a sturdy location on your 4Runner and drill mounting holes to bolt the plate. You also have the option to weld it in place for a permanent installation. The # BDW20008 is designed to fit the a 10 x 4-1/2 mounting...

  • Can a Manual A-Frame Trailer Jack be Raised and Lowered Using a Power Drill
  • Like you said there are some stabilizer jacks and even some winches that will allow you to attach a drill to raise/lower or reel in legs or line much faster. But there are no A-frame jacks, or any regular trailer tongue jacks, that I have seen that have this type of feature. If manually cranking the handle starts to be a chore the best option is to go with an electric jack. The most cost effective one is Ultra-Fab jack # UF38-944037 rated for 3,500 pounds.
