Pulley Block Recommendation for Trailer

Question

Question:

Hi. I haul trash waste material on a 16ft tandem trailer. I’m trying to set up a winch at the tounge of the trailer and run it through the bottom of the trailer then up the deck and attach it to the wooden wall brace which would push everything out of the trailer if it works. I know I need to step up pulleys and I tried and failed. I’m wondering which pulleys I should use. Like mount pulleys? I have 9k lb Winch.
