Features to know about

Smooth and Reliable Operation: Dual-Gear Drum and Solid Drive Gear

Ever struggled with a winch that just won't cooperate? The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch is here to change that. Its dual-gear drum and solid drive gear work in harmony to provide smooth, reliable operation every single time. This means you can count on it when securing your boat or utility load, without the constant worry of slippage or gear binding.

Adaptable for Any Situation: Adjustable Handle Configuration

Handling a winch in tight spots can be cumbersome, but with the adjustable aluminum soft-grip handle of the Fulton F2, you're in control. You can easily switch from right- to left-hand configuration to match your comfort and preference. Plus, you can adjust the handle length between 6 inches and 7 inches to find the perfect balance between torque, speed, and clearance. Perfect for those tricky maneuvering situations!

Marine-Ready Durability: Rust-Resistant Cast Aluminum Frame

Worried about corrosion from marine environments? The Fulton F2 has you covered with its rust-resistant, cast aluminum frame. This makes it ideal for marine use, ensuring long-lasting durability even when exposed to harsh weather conditions or salty sea air. Your winch stays strong, no matter the elements.

Effortless Control: Easy-to-Use Lever for Pawl Engagement

Tired of complex winch mechanisms? The Fulton F2 simplifies your experience with an easy-to-use lever that engages and disengages the pawl quickly. This design helps make the operation fuss-free, allowing you more time to enjoy your activities rather than wrestling with cumbersome equipment.

Secure and Efficient: Enclosed Design with Strap Guide

The fully enclosed design not only looks sleek but also keeps internal components safe and sound. It includes a rear strap guide to prevent the strap from touching the gears, minimizing wear and ensuring your equipment stays in top condition for longer. The included polyester strap with hook ensures a firm hold on your precious boat or load.

  • Replacement Ratchet Spring and Install Diagram for Fulton F2 Winch
    I spoke to my contact at Fulton and he said the correct replacement spring for the ratchet of your Fulton F2 winch is the part # 4769-28. I attached a picture that shows a diagram for the winch for you to check out. You will be able to see how the spring installs on the ratchet assembly.

  • What Is Different Between the 1,600LB and 2,000LB Fulton F2 Winches?
    The 1,600LB # FW16000101 and 2,000LB # FW20000301 Fulton F2 winches have a lot of different components which allows the 2,000lb winch to be stronger. The case, internal components, and handles are different between these winches. The top cover is the only part I see which is used on both winches.

    The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Strap and Adjustable Handle - 1,600 lbs # FW16000101 will not need to be completely taken apart to replace the spring, but the housing, the pin and ratchet pawl will need to be removed to replace the spring # 4769-28.

  • Solution for Replacement Parts for Fulton T1802 Winch
    The Fulton T1802 was discontinued quite a while ago. Unfortunately, this means that replacement parts for the winch are no longer around. The best solution is to replace it with a similar winch like the Fulton Single Speed Trailer Winch - 1,800 lbs # F142306. I have attached an installation video below for your reference.

    The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Strap and Adjustable Handle - 1,600 lbs # FW16000101 you referenced measures 6-1/2 inches high and at its longest is 8 inches, as you can see by the accompanying photo. The base of the Fulton F2 is 6-3/16 inches x 3-3/8 inches, and this winch uses an "Easy Install System" that allows for different mounting hole locations so it will definitely fit your winch bolt hole pattern. I have added a link to a video review which I strongly recommend...

  • Replacement Boat Trailer Winch for Winch Mounted In Channel On Frame
    I do have plenty of options for you to choose from but finding one that matches what you have exactly is going to be next to impossible unless you were able to find the same model. Therefore, you are most likely gong to need to do a bit of modifications if you want to replace this winch. It looks like the winch mount setup you have now was a one-off for your particular winch model. The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW16000101 has a 6-3/16" long x 3-3/8" wide base but the...

  • Recommended Replacement Winch For a Discontinued Shelby Model 5403 Winch
    I recommend replacing your Shelby 5403 winch with the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW16000101. Your Shelby winch is out of production and no longer available. This Fulton is a fully enclosed winch making it safer to use and includes a 20' strap. It is rated with a capacity of 1,600lbs and has an adjustable handle that allows you to position it where you feel most comfortable using.

  • Replacement Strap for a Fulton F2 Winch
    To replace the strap on your Fulton F2 item # FW16000101 you will want the Hand Winch Strap with Safety Hook, 2" Wide x 20' Long item # DL24251. This has a breaking strength of 4,800 lbs and has the clasp at the end of the hook.

  • Winch Recommendation that Can Have Handle Installed on Either Side of It
    For a winch that you can move the handle to the left side you can use # FW16000101. This winch is specifically designed to allow the handle to be installed on either side easily so it would work the best for you. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well. The MT70176 is not designed to have the handle installed on the other side of it so I cannot recommend it for you.

  • Winch that Can Fit in Place of Ranger Trailer Trailer Winch
    Thankfully winch mounting brackets are all made to be pretty much the same and the winches have slotted mounting holes to allow for more flexibility there as well. So you could use a winch like the Fulton F2 # FW16000101 like you referenced.

  • Mounting Dimensions on Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW16000101
    The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch # FW16000101 referenced in your question has base dimensions, where it contacts the mounting location, of 3-3/8 inches by 6-3/16 inches. It features the industry standard bolt pattern, just like the 2,000 pound # FW20000301, that will allow the winch to be installed on almost any trailer. The two bottom bolts are spaced apart 2-1/4 inches on center, and the top bolt is 4-1/2 inches from both bottom bolts, on center. I have attached a short video...

  • Replacement Fulton F2 Trailer Winch for Ranger Boat Trailer
    Yes the Fulton F2 trailer winch part # FW16000101 is going to bolt right up in place of the F2 that you have now. It would be a super easy install. What jack do you have on your trailer? If you can let me know that I can see what you might need as a replacement. Or you can get me a picture of it.

  • Base Dimensions of the Single-Speed Boat Trailer Winch Part # 315-W1800D
    I went out to our warehouse and measured the Single-Speed Boat Trailer Winch part # 315-W1800D for you. The dimensions of the base are as follows; 6-1/4" long x 3-3/4" wide. I have attached a photo of these measurements for you as well. If you need something smaller than the best option we have for you is the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW16000101 as the base is 6-1/4" long x 3-3/8" wide. I have attached a review video for you.

  • Can Fulton F2 Winch FW16000101 Be Installed With Only Two Bolts In Straight Line
    No, The Fulton F2 # FW16000101 uses the industry standard mounting pattern which is shaped like a T as you mentioned. Your best option is just drilling/modifying the mounting plate for this pattern as its used by virtually every winch, and you'll have a really hard time finding a winch that'll mount any different. If you can send me pictures and measurements of your current mounting pattern I can see if on the off chance we have something that would be a direct replacement.

  • Replacement Options For Shelby 5403 Boat Trailer Winch Missing Handle
    The Replacement Handle # DL70305 has the same shaft mount of 3/8" wide on the flat surfaces and 1/2" wide on the round opening as your Shelby 5403 winch. Currently your winch has been out of production for 5 years and parts are near impossible to come by. For this reason you may be better off replacing the entire winch. I recommend the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch with Strap # FW16000101 as the aluminum frame will not rust and it will protect the strap from damaging UV rays....

  • Recommended Marine Hand Winch For 3000-Lb Boat
    I have attached a link to a helpful article that explains how to choose the correct winch for a boat trailer. Here is what the article says: Finding the Right Capacity Winch for your Boat Trailer. Boat-size-to-winch capacity is generally 2 to 1 With good rollers and short winching distances, increase the ratio to 3 to 1 With wooden bunks and long winching distances, reduce the ratio to 1 to 1 For example, a 2,200-lb boat generally requires a 1,100-lb winch. If the same boat were winched...

  • Does the Handle Change Directions When Switching Sides on the Fulton F2 Winch
    The Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch part # FW16000101 will allow you to change the side of the handle but that would then in-turn change the direction of rotation. The strap can be configured to spool over or under the drum which is further explained in the owner's manual.

  • Replacement for Shelby Winch 5405 Because Handle is Unavailable
    As you mentioned, Shelby is no longer in business so there are no replacement parts, and no way to confirm any are a fit for Shelby winches.
