Yes, you can add a winch to the Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer item # MPG464-LB. You will want to use the CE Smith Winch Stand item # CE31013G. This will fit on the Malone trailer's 2" tongue. This stand is 30" tall and made of galvanized steel.

I recommend using the MaxxTow MaxxHaul Hand Winch item # MT50156. This winch has a 20' strap and a 1,200 lbs capacity.

To upgrade the tires you will want the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire item # AM10130. This is a class D tire with a maximum capacity of 1,220 lbs at 65 psi per tire. It has a speed rating of M which tops out at 81 mph. This tire will fit a 12" x 4" rim.

It also has a 1-year worry-free guarantee. If within the first 12 months the tire is damaged in any way, it will be replaced at no charge.
