Dutton-Lainson Trailer Winch - Electric Winch - DL25001 Review Video

For 8,000 Lb. Dexter axles on your 5th wheel, I suggest the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit, #K2HR89DD. This will replace the hub/drums you have with rotor/hubs and the mounting brackets will attach to the mounting flanges you have. These are dacromet-plated…

The BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps, part #IMF17631, have a maximum tie-down length of 24 inches. The straps can be tightened down to a length less than 24 inches. You should have no problem using them if you have a tie-down length of 22…

The BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie Down Straps you mention, part #IMF17632 have a 1200 lb breaking strength, 400 working load limit (WLL) per strap. When determining the straps needed to secure a load of a certain weight, use the WLL figure. With…

What a lot of people do to mount a winch like the Superwinch Tiger Shark Series #SW1595200 to the floor of a trailer is use a hitch mount like the part #C31010 and then fabricate a hitch opening to the floor of the trailer like the #E-11 welded to…

In regards to the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch part #DL25215, the winch wiring harness is designed to attach to a vehicle battery and then run from the front back to the bumper so you can attach to the winch on the trailer when needed.…

Winch makers usually provide guidance about the required power to operate their winches to their fullest capacity. For example, the 3000-lb-rated Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch #DL25010 will require 70-amps of battery current to deliver its…

Assuming your tires are in good shape without any bulges the easiest way to determine if you have a bent spindle is to take a straight edge that is longer than the tire and lay it across the tire parallel with your trailer frame and then measure the…

Thank you for reaching out! The best thing for your situation is to go with the 3,500 lb Dexter Axle #T3584F-8974 you are looking at. While you can upgrade your axles to the 5,200 lb #e55GR, you won't really see a benefit from it unless you also…

There really isn't a particular maximum trailer weight that is used to determine when brakes need to be added to both axles of a tandem axle setup. While I do still recommend checking your local laws, I am also not aware of any general laws that…

The final width (with tires) of the Dexter Trailer Axle, #35545I-EZ-89, will depend on the wheel and tire size you intend to use. You would simply add the width of one tire (assuming your wheels have a zero offset) to the 89 inch hub face dimension…

Generally when picking out a winch for a boat trailer the ratio is 2 to 1 meaning you would need a winch with roughly half the capacity as the weight of the boat. With good rollers and a short winching distance the ratio increases to 3 to 1, but with…

I recommend the Dutton-Lainson TW4000 #DL25200. It's rated for up to a 4,000 boat and is powered through a quick disconnect hooked up to your tow vehicle's battery. So there's no need to add a battery onto your boat trailer.
