Most Popular Standard Hand Crank for Ford Explorer

Just got my F2 2- speed winch mounted a couple of days ago. It was easy to mount. It was more difficult to remove the old winch than it was to install the new one. Haven’t had a chance to use it at the boat landing yet but it seems like it will work well. Unable to give a rating since I haven’t actually used it yet.

I added the Fulton F2 to my 1994 Mastercraft Prostar Trailer and it fit beautifully, and with room to spare. People may say that a 3,200 lbs pulling winch is overkill for a boat whose dry weight is 2,600 lbs but I live on a lake with a terribly steep ramp, so I usually need to finish cranking her up while on land so, I naturally, I needed a little more oomph! Note that when the drum is full, all winch's pulling capacity decrease. The F2 has a pulling capacity of 1,600 lbs when the drum is full, which is usually where I need the power - to move the boat that last 12". The gears come pre-lubricated, since it's an enclosed design with hefty cast aluminum, I see why this winch has a lifetime warranty; it's built to last. In my opinion, the double hub design just makes sense. Usually I want to leave my boat in the lake as long as possible, now I can't wait to take it out just so I can try this winch.

Super beefy and after a years worth of use it still works as good as the day it was installed. I went a lot bigger then the factory winch on my trailer and I am glad I did. This thing drags my boat up without breaking a sweat.

I’m using two of these on a floating dock that fluctuates seasonally due to TVA water release during the winter. They hold plenty of cable & are heavy duty enough to move the dock as needed.

Works perfectly. I’m using the winch to lift a heavy (100 lb) cast iron effluent pump. The pump occasionally needs to have float switches replaced and the winch makes this job much easier.

Fantastic, well built, expected to see cheap socket welded onto the handle, nope, instead there was welded a quality 5/8" "PROTO" socket.. impressive! Just what I needed.

I am building a setup to raise and lower an ameteur radio tower. Purchased a winch from a hardware chain store, it looked just like yours and was $25 cheaper. It was rated for 2000lbs, but stripped out at only 200lbs and left my hanging with tower raise only 30 degrees, yes I had a scale on one of the cables. Replaced with your product today, it didn't even strain, even though it is rated for 500 lbs less. Lesson learned. Great product and btw I've had the same winch installed on another tower for years, has worked flawlessly.

I ordered this worm gear winch & cable to lift and hang two bicycles - mounted on the bicycle carrier rack - from my shop ceiling, (10'-1" height). The entire system was my own design and it performs very well, lifting the bikes and rack complete to a clear height of just less 6 ft, freeing up some floor space. The products delivered a day later than promised, but I'm completely satisfied with the product quality (USA mfg'd) and related pricing. I believe I received a full measure of service and I will not hesitate to shop etrailer again.

Installation was simple. I haven’t pulled the boat out yet with the new winch but it should be better than the 1600 lb one that was there.

This is the first boat trailer winch I've owned that I believe is heavy duty enough for my boat. My suggestion to anyone shopping for a boat winch is to buy one much larger than the ratings say. That being said, I love this winch and would highly recommend it.

Very easy to order and great products at reasonable prices. Received my or quicker than I expected too. Thanks everyone!!

This isn't my first winch like this and I love the first one as much as I'm sure I will this one. It is so smooth on releasing that I can easily pull out the strap I need and my first one was mounted on a boat trailer. This one was mounted on a 14 foot utility trailer that I use often. I made the mount for a moose hunt and wish I had this winch at the time. However, I have an offset smoker on wheels and haul it with this trailer and I positive this winch is going to be A LOT better than the one I had. The boat trailer sure is!!

Shipped promptly - with etrailer email notifications along the way Product exactly as described - gear teeth lubed - good quality - used as upgrade from the old reversible latch style winch for a non-trailer related homemade winch and boom and used two of these units, one to raise the boom arm and one to lift the load

The product is as advertised. The real star is the customer service at etrailer. Within a few hours of placing my order, I was contacted by a representative who informed me that the product that I had ordered would not be available for shipping for a week. I was told that there was a substitute that could be shipped immediately. I chose to stay with my original order. 6 days later, I received a confirmation email notifying me that my shipment was on the way. I prefer to be told when there's a delay rather than being kept in the dark.

The usual good Fulton quality and very fast shipping by Etrailer. This winch is a little low on maximum lbs rating at 900 lbs, but I knew that before ordering. All I really needed was the wide offset handle, not sold separately. I'll use the offset handle and the 12 foot winch strap on my present 1400 lb Fulton winch, and keep the bare 900 lb unit for use on a future project.

Works well used it for a year now for my pwc.

Excellent service, items were well packed, install straight forward. Works great!

The winch has held it's finish. no rust noted after a year. Mine is mounted to an antenna pole to lift the 25' mast. Nice addition to my project.

I received the Fulton XLT-two speed trailer winch today, I put it on and what a difference it made, I have a 2024 Express H20.The winch that came with it did not do well at all, I am so glad I seen this winch on line, what a big big difference, Gary

Nice winch, but you’ll need to get your own mounting hardware. 3 - 3/8” grade 5 or 8 bolts, nuts and washers.

Fantastic winch for my Robalo R272. I previously bought a couple of 3,500-pound winches on Amazon, but they only lasted a few months before the teeth stripped—probably due to the single bracket design. This one, though, is built solid with multiple brackets and a much better gear ratio. Well worth spending a bit more for the peace of mind knowing my boat gets pulled up without a hitch

Winch is very heavy duty and well coated with zinc. Handle can be removed and inserted in the low or high speed with a push of a button. Great winch. However,the brake lever is in a bag with a few hardware parts which must be assembled to the winch. I thought the brake lever would already be assembled to the winch. The e-clip (or wave washer as the instructions call it) that holds the brake lever in place broke when trying to clip it on. I had to run to an auto parts store 10 miles away to buy a new e-clip as I was in the middle of installation. If the brake lever had already been installed I would have given the winch five stars.

I purchased this Fulton (142418) XLT 2-Speed (2,600lbs) to replace the original Fulton XLT 1401(1,400 lbs) winch on my Sanger V230 boat trailer. Our winch was hit and the metal housing was bent, but still useable. Unfortunately, the strap got stuck in the gears because the metal housing no longer correctly guided the strap (which was getting old) and it started to tear. I researched several and due to possible mounting restrictions with others, I settled on this one. The installation wasn't difficult, but it would have been nice to have some sort of instructions for a starting point. I found an online video, but it didn't actually show the install. A little fumbling around and it was installed in about 30 minutes. This one is a bit bigger than the old one, but it fit with no problems or need to drill any additional holes (which I really wanted to avoid). The only negative I have with this winch is the strap release/wind lever on the bottom. When it is engaged to bring the strap in, the lever is almost fully retracted inside of the plastic housing. This may not be an issue for some...but I have long nails and getting that lever (especially if there is any tension on the strap) out isn't as easy as on my old one. Other than that, it's a great replacement product and we are happy with it thus far. The product arrived in time to save my daughter's 15th birthday weekend with her friends! Website had the information and pictures I needed to make my decision, and great customer service! Thank you!

Excellent winch, very very happy. Thanks for quick shipping and excellent customer service support!!

We have been using the Fulton winches for years and we are excited that we are able to team up with etrailer as our supplier. Vicki N has been a huge help getting this put together and we are excited that we can offer our clients the Fulton winches as they are the best on the market!
