I just received my new winch. Free shipping and I am surprised how quickly it arrived and how easy it was to install!! This is the third time I have ordered from them, and they have just about everything one can need for their trailer, and they provide great service and technical information. This winch has no exposed springs and the lock mechanism is greatly improved and looks great!
by: Dennis02/21/2020
I just installed the new bow roller and boat winch and am very pleased. The new Fulton F2 and C.E. Smith roller assembly went on easier than the old parts came off. I’m also very happy with the very clean look, they really dress up my Nitro bass boat better than the original parts. I am already making plans for more upgrades after seeing the results today. Thank you etrailer for your great service and great communication.

Great product, replaced Fulton XLT with F2 Single speed. Removing older one took more time than putting together and installing new one.

Shipping said 1 week, item was delivered in 2 days. Awesome experience. Thank you!
by: Charles02/13/2019
Upgraded my winch on my boat trailer, went with a heavier one than the one that came with trailer. Absolutely one of the best winches I’ve used. I ordered the winch late on a Saturday night and received it four days later on Wednesday, fantastic service, I’ll be glad to use etrailer again .
by: Jeremiah07/31/2020
Fast shipping! Great product! If I need anything in the future, I'll definitely use etrailer.com
by: Mark M05/26/2020
This Fulton F2 winch is an excellent item. It easily handles my Ranger 1882 VS. Easy to install and it looks great! Outstanding service from e-Trailer too. I've used them for years without problems. Highly recommended.

The Fulton F2 winch still looking good and working great after 1 year. Highly recommend it.
by: Mark10/04/2020
So far I like it. It was easy to install. And it nice and sturdy. I haven't taken my boat out in used it. But I will.
by: Frederick 09/26/2021
Replaced my truck original Fulton on my Ranger Trailer. Upgraded to the F2. Awesome winch. No regrets in buying this.

This winch works perfectly. Solid product
by: Brett02/01/2018
Great winch, Installed it in just a couple minutes. Super easy with the large handle, cranks the boat up on the trailer like butter!
by: Richard f03/17/2018
I will not install the products on my trailer
for a few weeks and due to restoration of
my boat it will be a few months before I use
the Items. Everything looks as I expected and
and hope I am satisfied with how they
function. My main concern was the packing
and shipping of the Items. Before opening
the box, I didn’t know if any of the Items would
be damaged or not. The outside of the
box was mashed in at a couple of places,
the jack handle was bursted through the box
and the end was sticking out. After, opening
the box, the winch box was mashed in. I
didn’t see any damage to anything.

This is my second order from etrailer. Both were filled quickly and arrived as expected. In both cases the etrailer replacement model recommendation and video were invaluable. The new wench was easy to install despite minimal manufacturer installation instructions.
by: Richard 05/01/2020
Winch stripped out on my 20' Skeeter. Replaced it with this FW2. Easy to install and is a solid upgrade from the one that came with the trailer. Ordered on a Saturday evening and was delivered Wednesday afternoon. Have ordered from etrailer before and as usual, this was a great transaction.
by: Brian N01/23/2017
Excellent Product. I've owned a Fulton Winch for my boat trailer for years, its never let me down. I decided to replace it only because I'm refurbishing my boat trailer.
by: Rickey05/06/2021
Perfect upgrade for anyone needed a new winch for an old trailer or if you just need more power to yank your flat bottom up off a steep river bank!
by: Jeff 01/31/2020
Used the new winch today. Wow so much easier to use and pull a 19 foot bass boat up tight against the bow stop. Dual cams are the best! This was the best price from etrailer and delivered fast. Love this winch!
by: Jeff06/22/2019
Got the strap and hook today that was missing from initial shipment. Great customer service got a new one here quickly. Successfully installed. Nice service, nice winch.
by: PaulB05/01/2015
Just installed. Seems to be a great quality product. Much better than stamped cheap winches. Supplier etrailer did a great job and got this to me the next day so I could go fishing. Great Job!
by: Bill K07/08/2012
This winch is simply outstanding- well designed, geared perfectly. Well worth the extra money. Use it on a 21' Four Winns deckboat.
by: Clifford 04/16/2020
I received my order today and have installed my new winch. I like all of the features of this product. Sometimes buying online does not give us the confidence that seeing in person before buying can do. I was very satisfied with this product. When you do a lot of towing of various pieces of equipment like I do it is great to know that I can get what I need to keep it all rolling. Etrailer always has what I need and gets it to me quick.
by: Harold 01/12/2020
Etrailer had a great price, quick and accurate shipping. They carry high end and less expensive products to give you a wide spectrum of choices
by: Kris Anderson01/29/2017
This thing is pretty big , so be sure you have the room for it. That being said, it's a pretty solid product. Should work well for our sailboat trailer.
by: Wanda 07/01/2020
Easy install. ETRAILER.COM has Fast Shipping. Great upgrade .

- Recommended Replacement Winch for XLT1401 with Failed Ratcheting PawlI reached out to my contact at Fulton and the part you are looking for has been discontinued. You will need to replace the entire winch because that ratchet pawl is no longer available and he said no other kit will work. I recommend the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle - 2,000 lbs # FW20000301 or the Fulton XLT 2-Speed Trailer Winch with Heavy Duty 20' Strap - Zinc - 2,600 lbs # F142418 as a replacement. Both of these use a different ratcheting pawl than...

- Recommended Replacement for Fulton XLT1401 Trailer WinchIn order to replace the Fulton XLT1401 Trailer Winch I recommend using the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW20000301 which will actually be an upgrade for you. The added weight capacity is going to put less stress on the winch which in turn improves longevity. This winch also has an adjustable length handle for ergonomics, fully enclosed shell for durability, and an easy to use pawl. I have attached a review video for you as well.

- Recommended Replacement Winch for Fulton XLT1401To replace your old Fulton XLT1401 Trailer Winch I recommend using the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW20000301. This winch has a bit higher weight capacity than the XLT1401, so it's going to put less stress on the winch and make it last longer; at the end of the day, it's actually a bit of an upgrade. I've linked a short review video of this winch for you to check out.
view full answer... - How to Choose a Hand Winch for a Tow Dolly In order to choose the correct winch for your application, you would need to know both the weight of the vehicle and degree of the incline the winch must overcome to pull the vehicle onto the dolly. On level ground, a winch can pull 10 times its capacity if the load is rolling. For example, a winch rated at 1,600 lbs while pulling a rolling load can handle up to 16,000 lbs. However, while pulling that same load up a 17 degree incline, the winch's capacity is then reduced to 4,176 lbs. I...
view full answer... - Recommended Marine Hand Winch For 3000-Lb BoatI have attached a link to a helpful article that explains how to choose the correct winch for a boat trailer. Here is what the article says: Finding the Right Capacity Winch for your Boat Trailer. Boat-size-to-winch capacity is generally 2 to 1 With good rollers and short winching distances, increase the ratio to 3 to 1 With wooden bunks and long winching distances, reduce the ratio to 1 to 1 For example, a 2,200-lb boat generally requires a 1,100-lb winch. If the same boat were winched...
view full answer... - Replacing Fulton XLT 1401 Winch With New Upgraded Boat WinchThe parts you need for your older Fulton XLT1401 are no longer available so you will want to replace your winch. While I'm sure this isn't what you were wanting to hear, I will give you a great replacement option to consider. Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle - 2,000 lbs # FW20000301 is a very popular upgrade which is rated for 2,000lbs. This winch allows the cable to retract slowly, instead of free-spooling like some other winches on the market. I attached a...

You will need to replace the entire winch because that ratchet pawl is no longer available and he said no other kit will work. I recommend the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle - 2,000 lbs # FW20000301 or the Fulton XLT 2-Speed Trailer Winch with Heavy Duty 20' Strap - Zinc - 2,600 lbs # F142418 as a replacement.

view full answer... - Mounting Dimensions on Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW16000101The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW16000101 referenced in your question has base dimensions, where it contacts the mounting location, of 3-3/8 inches by 6-3/16 inches. It features the industry standard bolt pattern, just like the 2,000 pound # FW20000301, that will allow the winch to be installed on almost any trailer. The two bottom bolts are spaced apart 2-1/4 inches on center, and the top bolt is 4-1/2 inches from both bottom bolts, on center. I have attached a short video...
view full answer... - Can Strap Of Fulton F2 Trailer Winch FW20000301 Come From Bottom Of Drum?That can be done. I reached out to my contact at Fulton and the Fulton F2 Trailer Winch # FW20000301 you were looking at can have the winch installed so that the strap is coming off of the bottom of the drum. Keep in mind that this will require you to spin the winch handle the opposite direction and will cause the switches to be reversed. I included a video of the # FW20000301 for you to take a look at.

The F2 is more designed for comfort and ease of use with it's ergonomic shaped handle that can be adjusted to length and left or right handed and lighter capacity whereas the XLT is a bit more robust and has a higher capacity. Neither has...
view full answer... - Replacement 2,000 Pound Hand Winch Recommendation for Boat TrailerUnfortunately, we don't currently carry a replacement for the Shelby 5409 with a 2100 pound capacity. We do carry additional winches that may work with your boat trailer. The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle, 2,000 pounds # FW20000301, or a Dutton Lainson hand winch # DL14825 which has a 2500 pound maximum capacity. You may also consider a Dutton-Lainson heavy duty brake winch # DL10786 which has a rating of 2500 pounds. The brake is automatically applied...
view full answer... - Freespooling, Controlled Load 2,000 Pound Hand Trailer Winch RecommendationI spoke with my contact at Fulton about the F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle, # FW20000301. He stated that there is no minimum load required for the winch to operate. You can use it for controlled loads/unloads, but this winch is designed as a pulling winch, not for lifting, and is not meant to suspend loads. In its freespooling mode, the handle will still spin as the line is being pulled out. You might want to consider an electric winch like the Superwinch LT2000...
view full answer... - How To Replace a Knot Autoflex Winch and Bow Roller Assembly On a Boat TrailerI do have a solution for you but we don't offer any integrated winch and bow roller setups like the Knot Autoflex. Therefore, you'd have to purchase a winch stand assembly like the CE Smith Winch Stand part # CE31013G which bolts onto the tongue and allows you to mount a winch like the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW20000301 and bow roller like the Bow Roller Assembly part # YR300B-325B when using the CE Smith Bow Roller Bracket for Winch Stands part # CE31005PG.

- Comparing Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winches FW20000301 and FW20000101There are no differences between the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle part # FW20000301 and FW20000101. The different part numbers are used by the manufacturer for packaging and shipping i.e. bulk versus boxed.

The capacity of the left hand winch DL16331 is a bit lower at 1,200 lbs. This is the closest option we have available with a left handle. The bolt patterns are not exactly the same but they have elongated holes to assist with installation. I have attached the mounting pattern of both...

- Does Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch Have Adapter Plate for MountingThe Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW20000301 does not have any kind of adapter plate to allow you to mount it to a different bolt pattern. You will have to drill new holes if you want to use this winch. I attached a diagram below with the mounting bolt pattern.

- Availability Of Fulton Winch Where Handle Can Be Moved From Right To Left Hand SideI have a replacement winch option for you, but there is not a way to move the handle on the Fulton High-Performance Brake Winch - Cable Only - 2,500 lbs # F143201 you were looking at from the right to the left side. Instead you will need to get a winch that is capable of this. I recommend the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle - 2,000 lbs # FW20000301 which has a handle which can be mounted on either the left or right side, has the highest ratings of a left hand...

I spoke with my contact at Fulton to confirm that these items would work together.
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Jack for 2008 Mastercraft Boat TrailerSounds like you have a great plan in place to freshen up your 2008 Mastercraft boat trailer. The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch, # FW20000301, that you mentioned is a great option and receives very favorable customer reviews. As for the jack, as long as your existing Fulton jack pivots on a single bolt, you could use the Fulton Bolt-Thru Swivel Marine Jack, # FXP15W, as a replacement. This jack has a lift capacity of 1,500 lbs so it should work great for your trailer. If your...
view full answer... - Trailer Jack and Winch for 3,000 Pounds or Less Boat TrailerSince a jack doesn't need to hold the weight of the entire trailer it's pretty easy to get one rated for more than what you need. the 1,500 pound bolt-on swivel jack # MJ-1500B-DWL or 2,000 pound weld-on # TJP-2002S-B will be enough and are both great options. It's the same for a winch as well. The winch doesn't need to support the entire weight of the boat but needs to be strong though to pull it along your rollers. Being that you have rollers that will make it easier on the winch...

The base is 3-1/2 inches by 6-1/8 inches. The industry standard mounting pattern is basically a triangle-shaped bolt pattern. The two bolts at the bottom are 2-1/4 inches apart on center. The top bolt is 4-1/2 inches from either bottom bolt on center. This winch does not function like a worm gear or brake winch. If you want to try...
view full answer... - Replacement Boat Winch That Will Hold Up In Harsh Salt Water ConditionsI recommend the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle # FW20000301. This case is fully covered and utilizes a solid aluminum body that will hold up very well with the harsh Florida salt water. The handle is adjustable from 6-9" to allow you to adjust it to make working the winch easier for you. The 20' Polyester strap allow for a 2,000lb load.
view full answer... - Can Fulton F2 3000-lb Winch Be Switched From Right-Hand To Left-Hand OperationThe # FW32000101 winch from Fulton does not have a left-hand and right-hand feature. The handle will only fit on one side of the winch and cannot be moved to the other side. We do have an enclosed winch like part # FW20000301 that does have the feature you mentioned. This is a 2,000-lb winch and it has a dual gear drum.
view full answer... - Will Fulton F2 Trailer Winch FW20000301 Be Exact Replacement For Fulton XLT 1401 Trailer Winch?It sure will! The Fulton XLT 1401 winch currently on your bolt trailer uses the industry standard bolt spacing, which the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Adjustable Handle - 2,000 lbs # FW20000301 also uses. This is 2-1/4" center to center of the lower two mounting holes, and 4-1/2" from the center of the upper bolt hole to the center of either two lower bolt hole as shown in the included diagram. I included a video of the # FW20000301 for you to take a look at.
