Both the SnowBear Proshovel Snowplow, with Electric Actuator # SB324-168 and the SnowBear Personal Snowplow, with Electric Winch # SB324-080 will allow you to easily raise and lower the snowplow, and both come with an in-cab toggle switch, as well as a wireless remote, so that the plow can be controlled from the comfort of your vehicle.
SnowBear markets the plow with the electric winch as a personal/residential winch, and the plow with the actuator for more larger scale plowing needs.... view full answer...
The rack and pinion for the Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch, # 2953AT, is in reference to the way that the winch brakes. It is a mechanical system that can support a load when stopped and the clutch is not engaged (which would allow the line to be pulled out).
A dynamic brake uses the motor to apply tension to the drum and it cannot hold a load. If it were me, I would go with Superwinch # 1120210, for the fact that it has the ability to power the load in and out. The Master Lock winch... view full answer...
The Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch - Synthetic Rope - Hawse Fairlead - 4,400 lbs # BDW15020 is a really great winch designed for utility trailer use. It is able to be used as a boat trailer winch, but it has a slower run time with a long recovery cycle.
The Dutton-Lainson TW4000 StrongArm Electric Winch - Marine - 4,000 lbs # DL25200 is my recommendation with almost twice as fast a line speed under load and nowhere near the amperage draw. This will serve you better for your 4,500 lb boat... view full answer...
The Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch # DL25215 is comparable to your Fulton XLT 10, but there are a few differences. The main difference is the capacity. This winch is designed for boats up to 9,000 lbs vs the 10,000 lb capacity of the Fulton.
It has the same power in, power out, and free spool. It also features a dynamic motor brake, heat-treated gears, and precision needle bearings. The only other thing it is lacking is a remote. You will have to operate StrongArm using the switch... view full answer...
Yes, the difference between the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 and Detail K2 Elite Snowplow # K2AVAL8422ELT is the Elite has the electric actuator over the winch. The Elite also uses a chain connection to the blade while the basic K2 has a strap that is more likely to become damaged. The electric actuator is superior to the winch. It operates faster, smoother and it has a built in clutch that will protect against damage that a winch would cause. The actuator won't be able to lift the blade... view full answer...
The 12-volt Superwinch LT2000 Electric Utility Winch, # 1120210, has a 2000-pound line pull capacity, which is well within your 330-pound load requirements. However, the dynamic braking on this item is not recommended for your application.
Dynamic braking systems are intended primarily for direct pull requirements such as pulling a boat or car onto a trailer. Your hoisting application would likely put too much stress on the drum. Also, please note that the 153:1 gear ratio equates to... view full answer...
There are two things the # DL25010 has that the # DL25001 does not. One is the hand-held remote with a 10' cord. The other is the spring-loaded clutch lever for releasing load with power. Outside of these two differences, the winches have all of the same features. Personally, I would get the # DL25010 just for the convenience of having a remote. view full answer...
Both the Fulton # F142421 and the Dutton Lainson # DL15440 2-speed hand winches are rated for 3200-lbs maximum capacity. The Fulton works only with wire rope # FWC7500100 but the Dutton Lainson works with a wire rope # DL24104 or a polyester strap # DL24251. Although both are intended for use on a boat trailer they could certainly be used in a car trailer application so long as they offered the required pulling capacity.
Most of the time car trailers use an electric winch, like one of... view full answer...
The main differences between the Dutton-Lainson winches you referenced is that # DL14881 has a hand brake, a drum hub diameter of 1-5/16 inches, and two speeds. The # DL24844 winch is a single speed and has a drum hub diameter of 3-1/8 inches. Because of the lower gear ratios # DL14881 offers, the load would be able to be drawn in quicker than with the gear ratio of # DL24844. The two speed winch would allow you to be able to change the gear ratio for loads of different weights. The handle... view full answer...
A breaker with a manual reset such as # PK54871PL should be used on any circuit that you do not want to automatically power back on. So for a really basic example let's say you had a circular saw that had an inline circuit breaker. An overload causes the saw to stop running. If it had an automatic rest breaker the saw would start back up without warning and that could be dangerous.
Winches usually use circuit breaker blocks such as # SW90-22147. A winch can use an automatic resetting breaker... view full answer...
Both of the front-axle suspension helper kits you referenced for your 2011 Ram 3500 4WD, the Timbren # TDF25004B and the SumoSprings # SSF-302-47, are rubber jounce springs that offer progressive resistance under load. Installation will be similar - no drilling for either kit.
For your particular application with a heavy front bumper and winch installed, I suggest the Timbren kit over the SumoSprings.
The Sumos are great for softening general ride quality but for your application with... view full answer...
Apart from the size of the plows, another economic factor is whether the plow is electric actuator driven like the Detail K2 Rampage II Elite Snowplow - Custom Mount # K2RAMP8219ELT or electric winch driven like the Detail K2 Rampage II Snowplow # K2RAMP8219. The actuator-driven capability is generally easier to maintain and generally lasts about twice as long as a winch-driven plow.
If you want a more economical option that still includes an actuator mechanism, I recommend the Detail... view full answer...
The Detail K2 Elite Snowplow for 2" Hitch, # K2AVAL8219ELT on your 2017 Nissan Frontier uses an electric actuator raise and lower the plow whereas the Detail K2, # K2AVAL8219 uses an electric winch.
The Detail K2 Elite Snowplow, # K2AVAL8219ELT has an internal clutch that prevents damage caused by overextension of the actuator. It also uses a chain instead of a strap on the other model.
For a front mounted hitch on your 2017 Nissan Frontier, I suggest the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer... view full answer...
