There is no reason that the ComeUp DV-6s Off-Road Winch - Synthetic Rope - Hawse Fairlead - 6,000 lbs, part # CU854754, could not be used on the front and rear of your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado Duramax. The wire that you will be running from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the vehicle will need to be really thick wiring - winches draw a lot of power. I recommend using the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End - 2 Gauge - 24' Long
Item # BDW20207, and the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End - 3 Gauge - 7-1/2' Long
Item # BDW20025. Each of them will have ring terminals that will hook to your trucks battery.

You will not be able to install the winch and keep it in one place on your truck. It will have to be moved from the front to the rear and vice versa when you want to use the winch.

If your vehicle has a hitch receiver in the front of your vehicle, like the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2", part # C31071, you can use the Curt Trailer Hitch Electric Winch Mount Plate, part # C31010, to mount the winch in the front of your vehicle.

I have included product descriptions, a video demo, an installation videos of the front trailer hitch, the trailer hitch electric winch mount, and the front winch wiring kit below.

Seal 171255UC has an inner diameter of 1.719 inches and outer diameter of 2.565 inches. A seal that has those dimensions would actually be #58846. I've added a link to a video review of this seal for you to take a look at.

Since you have a Dometic AC unit the best option to replace it from Advent would be the part #ACDOM135 which was designed for this exact situation and would allow you an easy install since the electronics would plug right in.

Answer 12

Brake systems are not dependent on the hub bolt pattern. So you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit #AKEBRK-7-SA for 12 inch hub/drums or #AKEBRK-35-SA for 10 inch hub/drums. Then use #10-1-1 wire sold by the foot for your brake magnet wiring.…
