  • Winch Recommendation For A 6,800 Pound Boat
  • For a boat that weighs 6,800 pounds you would need a winch that has a capacity of at least 3,400 pounds. The Fulton High-Performance 2-Speed Trailer Winch with Handbrake - Cable Only - Zinc - 3,700 pounds # F142430 will work. This is a 2 speed hand winch. The fast speed lets you pull in quickly, while the lower speed offers an increased mechanical advantage. It has a capacity of 3,700 pounds. This winch can use a cable only like The Fulton Galvanized Winch Cable with Hook - 50 foot x 7/32...

  • Will the Superwinch S9000 Work on a Mounting Plate at the Rear Hitch Receiver of a 2012 Dodge Ram
  • The Superwinch S9000 Heavy Duty Recovery Winch is confirmed to work with the Hitch Mounted Winch Mounting Plate # BDW20155. In order to install the winch at the rear of your vehicle you will also need to install a wiring kit like # BDW20206 because the wiring located at your bumper is not nearly adequate for the amperage draw of a winch. This will also give you quick connect terminals to make installing and removing the winch easy.

  • Recommendation for a Winch to Load a Harley Davidson Motorcycle into a Cargo Trailer
  • You would need to consult a qualified welder to have a mount fabricated that will allow you rotate the handle 360 degrees on a hand winch. We do not stock any bolt on parts that are heavy enough to be used to mount a winch safely in this case, and you would need to tie the mount into the trailer frame for stability. We have a Universal Hand Winch Right Angle Mounting Bracket, item # DL24110, which would make the fabrication of the raised mount easier. An option I would look at, would be...

  • Recommended Winch to Run Off AC Power Source
  • I have a solution for you, but the Electric Winch # 2953AT is designed to work off of DC power, so it's not something you could plug into a wall outlet to work and it would require a 12v DC power source. Instead, you can use the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch, AC Powered - 2,700 lbs # DL24872 which comes equipped with a plug that will allow you to plug it into an AC power source.

  • How To Add Quick Disconnect Harness for Electric Boat Winch
  • I may have a solution for you, but there's not going to be a wiring harness that can be used that will provide you with the power you're going to need to pull from the battery to power the winch. Your best bet might be to create some sort of quick disconnect for each of the batteries that you can either hook up when needed, or leave attached to the vehicles. This would require cutting off the battery clamp ends of your winch and putting quick disconnects like the Dutton-Lainson Electrical...

  • Can Dutton-Lainson Electric Trailer Winch be Used with a 6,500 Pound Boat
  • As long as the winch is rated high enough to for your application it is safe to use. With that being said, if it's over rated that can improve the performance and longevity of the winch itself. For example, if you're always running it at its maximum capacity it won't last as long as a higher rated winch being used at 75 percent of its max capacity. The Dutton-Lainson # DL25215 is rated to pull a 9,000 pound boat onto a trailer

  • Correct Gauge of Wiring for Boat Trailer Winch with 10 Foot Lead
  • You will definitely need a larger gauge wire, like 4 or 6 gauge (sometimes 8 is acceptable), when it comes to a winch because they pull a LOT of power for a short time. If a winch you're looking at is only offering 10 gauge wire for a winch then I'd ditch that wiring and go with something better suited for the job at hand. For a wiring kit that uses 6 gauge wiring we have the Bulldog Winch Wiring Kit for ATV/UTV Winches # BDW20307. This comes with a 120" lead for the vehicle side and a...

  • Wiring Options for an Electric Winch Powered by an Additional Battery
  • The easiest way to wire the battery for your winch will be to use the 7 way connector on your vehicle if you have one on your 2006 GMC Truck. You can get a 7 way trailer connector like part # A7WCB and use the Jacketed 2 Wire, part # 10-2-1, to connect a wire for the power and a wire for the ground in the connector. You will then run the ground wire, or white wire, to the negative terminal on the secondary battery and run the power lead, black wire, to the positive terminal on the battery....

  • How Can I Use the Bulldog Winch # BD54FR with a 110v Outlet?
  • While all of our available winches run off 12v or 120v power sources, the best route to power your winch is by using a converter. We unfortunately do not have a simple wiring setup that can achieve this conversion. With that being said, if you are set on the Bulldog Utility Winch # BD54FR, the best option is to use the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger - 12V - 60 Amps # PD9160A. With the Inteli-Power, you can plug in this converter to a 110v AC outlet...

  • Floor Mount Winch Needed to Pull Powered Parachute Airplane Into Enclosed Trailer
  • We have exactly what you are looking for! The Dutton-Lainson Worm Gear Hand Winch # DL11004 has a hex drive topwind handle that you can operate by hand while it sits on the floor of your trailer or with a drill and a 5/8" socket. I recommend using the drill since the worm gear operates really slow. It takes 40 turns of the handles for 1 rotation of the drum. This winch is rated for 2,000 lbs so it will easily be able to pull your powered parachute airplane into your enclosed trailer....

  • Will A 7-Way Carry Enough Power To Operate a 21 Amp Draw Electric Winch On a Boat Trailer?
  • With your winch having a high amp draw and constant use I recommend installing a dedicated Quick Connect Harness # DL24151. This is an 8 gauge wire which will be safe to use with your 21 amp draw and will not risk damage to your factory 7-way which uses a much smaller 10 or 12 gauge wire which wasn't designed for constant high draw. We do have the Quick Connect # DL24085 which you can attach to your boat trailer winch so you can easily connect and remove the power when needed.

  • Wiring to Use an Electric Winch at the Front and Back of a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
  • Glad to hear that you will be using the Draw-Tite # 65078 to mount the (discontinued) Superwinch Tiger Shark Off-Road Winch SW1595200 to the front of your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. To easily swap the Tiger Shark winch from the front of your Silverado to the back I recommend using the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit # BDW20025 and the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit # BDW20207. The front kit has 8' of wire while the rear kit has 24' of wire which should be more than enough for your application....

  • Methods to Charge & Maintain Trailer-Mounted Winch Battery on Car Hauler Trailer
  • A great way to keep your trailer-mounted battery well-maintained when shore power is available is to use an AC-powered charger/maintainer like the CTEK products, such as # CTEK56353. This unit automatically switches from charge mode to maintenance mode as your battery is topped off. I have owned and used one of their chargers for almost 6 years. Mine continues to perform perfectly even after almost 6 years of non-stop 24/7 duty charging motorcycle, auto and lawn mower batteries.
