Question:

Hello, I have a winch in my trailer that I need to connect to the truck to power the winch. Do you have a kit or can you put together a parts list, connector, plug, wire, that I can purchase from etrailer to get the winch powered up from the truck? Thanks

The Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit part # BDW20026 is a great option for using the truck's battery to power a winch on the trailer. The wire leads are 24' long and 3 gauge. The kit comes with the wire leads and quick connect plugs that go between the truck and trailer for easy hook-up.

Please note, if you don't know your wire gauge requirements you'll need to refer to the winch specifications in the manual. If you need another wire size please just let me know what that is, you go larger in wire size like 2 gauge but not smaller like 4 gauge.
