Yes, the Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver Winch Mounting Plate Item # 6495 can also be used on the hitch on the back of your SUV. The issue here is that you have a Class I trailer hitch and the Draw-Tite Winch Mounting Plate # 6495 fits into 2" hitch receivers.
A better fit for you will be the Bulldog Winch ATV Winch Mounting Plate for 1-1/4" Hitches # BDW20316. This will fit into your 1-1/4" Class I hitch and is compatible with Bulldog Winches like the Bulldog Utility Winch # BD54FR. view full answer...
From the sounds of your issue, you have either the Terra 35 # SW1135230 or the # SW1135220. The first thing that I recommend is to try both the rocker switch and the handlebar switch to help rule out a switch issue. Also, it is important to rule out any frays on the wiring as well. If you need help testing any of the wires for power, I recommend using the circuit tester # PTW2993. As an absolute last resort (given that everything is wired correctly), it could be an issue with the solenoid.... view full answer...
We do have options for winches that have a wireless remote, but each of the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm winches, such as the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch with Remote, AC Powered - 2,700 lbs # DL25019 come with remotes that are wired in.
I recommend checking out the ComeUp UW-5000si Trailer Winch - Wireless Remote # CU645010.
This is the lightest-duty winch with a wireless remote that works from up to 90 feet away and has a 5,000 lb static load pull rating.

For your enclosed trailer the Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch part # BDW15020 would be a great option for pulling in your drag truck as it has a 4,400 lb capacity and was designed for this type of application.

I have a great winch solution for you. Unfortunately, the Bulldog Utility Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead # BD54FR is only rated to pull up to 2,500 pounds. With that being said, I recommend the Superwinch Winch 2 Go Portable Winch - Synthetic Rope - Hawse Fairlead # SW1140232.

The amount of cold cranking amps you need depends on how much you plan to lift/pull. The Badland Winch 2500 has an amp draw of 132amps at 2500 lbs, so any car battery should do.

The Comeup Winch part # CU645010 and the Superwinch S5500 Trailer Winch # SW1455201 with the wireless remote # SW43GR are both pretty similarly specced once you have the wireless remote for the Superwinch.
Based on that I would go with the ComeUp since the price is better, the wireless remote doesn't require any install, has a great range, and easily stores on the winch. The Comeup is also about 20 lbs lighter as well. view full answer...

For as large, powerful, and heavy as the Bulldog Winch Heavy-Duty Series Off-Road Winch # BDW94FR you'd need to look into something well-reinforced to mount this to. Especially if you wanted to attach it to a hitch. Probably best option would be a fabricator like you mentioned. view full answer...

Your best bet is to get a recovery rope that can connect to your pump and then have that rope connect to the winch. We do not have a winch that can carry that much cable in it's spool, but have a bunch of winches that can carry that kind of weight like a Standard Series Winch # BDW10041.

The right winch for you will really depend on the weight capacity you're needing. For instance, the Bulldog Winch # BDW10042 you'd looked at has a 9500 lb capacity, but when a pulley block like # BDW20077 is used, you'll double the pulling capacity of the winch.

That's a hard figure to give as different winches draw different amounts of amperage and they also draw different amounts of amperage based on how close to the capacity the winch is at. A handful of hours is commonly the amount of time for most applications.

Winch gear ratios aren't normally given for electric winches since they do not have a handle that gets cranked by hand which is what the ratio is factored with. So the best info I can give you on the Bulldog Winch part # BD54FR is the line speed when it has no load and line speed with its full load.
When there is not load the line moves at 16.4 feet per minute and draws 30 amps and then at a full load of 2,500 lbs it moves at 4.2 feet per minute and draws 200 amps. view full answer...

I spoke with my contact over at Bulldog winch and found out what that small gauge black wire is for. That is the ground wire for the contactor and it will ground along with the main winch ground. I had a feeling it was a ground wire but wanted Bulldog to confirm this and they did! view full answer...
According to the parts diagram for your Dutton Lainson # DL24876 Strong Arm winch, the # DL304921 motor is indeed the correct replacement. view full answer...
I wish we had a wireless remote for that winch but at this time we do not have anything. Are you looking for an alternative winch that does have a wireless option? view full answer...
Connecting a charger to two batteries in parallel really will be the same as wiring them in parallel. You'd put one terminal on one battery and the other on the other battery. view full answer...
Yes, the Superwinch Winch 2 Go Portable Winch - Wire Rope - Hawse Fairlead - 4,000 lbs # SW1140222 has the ability to reverse the motor. The line can be electronically pulled out or pulled in with the touch of the switch/remote. This is ran off of a 12V DC battery. I attached a short demonstration video for you. view full answer...
The Superwinch LT3000 # SW1130220 does come with a plate that will allow you to mount the winch on your trailer. My contact at Superwinch said that the plate will bolt to your trailer. The mounting bolt pattern is 3 inches by 4-7/8 inches.
How the mount is connected to the trailer will depend on the trailer's construction. It is recommended that the mount be bolted onto a structure that is tied into the trailer frame.

I checked with Dutton Lainson and for the Strongarm winches like the part # DL25046 it's actually normal to see white smoke when you use the winch for the first time as it's the oil film leftover from the assembly being burned off. I suspect this is what you are smelling and it's perfectly normal. view full answer...
Yes, the Bulldog Utility Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead - 2,500 lbs, part # BD54FR, is strong enough to use to pull a deer into the bed of a utv.
I have included a video demo link below. view full answer...
I talked to my contact at Bulldog to get some information for you. The Bulldog Utility Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead - 2,500 lbs # BD54FR comes with a 50' rope which is 3/16" in diameter. There is not an exact answer when it comes to run time and cool off time since there are so many variables, however, Bulldog states that it is a good idea to run the winch for 3-5 minutes and allow for about 20-30 minutes to cool down. A good rule of thumb is to stop if the winch feels hot, and continue... view full answer...
Since you are pulling your trailer up at a 35 degree incline and there will be multiple layers wrapped around the winch (as that makes a difference) the Bulldog Winch Off-Road Winch # BDW10042 rated at 9,500 lbs is exactly what you need.
Installing it with a battery at the top of your driveway is a great idea. One thing to keep in mind is that the winch has a continuous run time of 2 minutes. At 0 lbs the line speed is 19 FPM (Feet Per Minute) but at the full 9,500 lbs your line speed... view full answer...
A better solution for a mounting plate for the Bulldog Winch part # BDW10041 that you mentioned would be the universal mounting bracket part # BDW20291 which is larger than the mount you mentioned. Then for hardware we have the part # BDW20297 which fits the countersunk holes of the mount. view full answer...
The Superwinch Winch 2 Go 4000 SR, part # SW1140232 does have a brake but is not designed to hold a load, such as a suspended item in the air.
The hand held rocker switch controls the in and out feed of the load you are using with the winch and when released will pause the in or out function.

If your trailer has a winch mounting plate on it already the Superwinch Tiger Shark part # SW1595200 would easily mount to it and work well. The roller fairlead you see in the pictures does mount to the front of the winch. view full answer...
A Superwinch LT2500 has a 2500 lb line pull capacity. For a rolling load like a car with fully inflated tires, a winch with a capacity equal to the weight of the vehicle, in your case 4000 lbs is recommended. This means that your winch has about half the needed capacity to pull that vehicle up a 12% slope into the trailer. If a pulley block like # BDW20005 is used, you'll effectively double the capacity of your winch which would do the trick for you and allow you to load the trailer, but

The best AC powered option we have for your application is Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch w/ Remote and Pulley Block part # DL25046 that has a 50' long cable. There is not a powered winch available in DC or AC that has a 90 ft cable. If you can get away with 50' of cable the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch part # DL25046 will work well for you. view full answer...
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.
The hitch mount route allows the winch to easily be removed from the trailer if needed as well. view full answer...
What I recommend is the Bulldog winch # BDW15019. With it you are able to add the wireless remote, # BDW20212 sold separately, to operate the winch from up to 100 feet away. The winch does have a free spool mode so you can pull the line out quickly. I have linked a video review of this winch for you. I have also linked a video of the remote. view full answer...
The Dutton-Lainson StrongArm 12-Volt DC Electric Winch with Remote # DL25220 is an excellent option for your 2,500 lb boat. The 3,000 lb weight rating is for rolling loads, but this can actually handle up to a 9,000 lb boat, and since you have rollers on your trailer it will just make it that much easier on the winch.
To mount this you can either use the mounting plate # DL24059, or the mounting plate # DL24055 depending on what you already have on your setup. view full answer...
The Bulldog winch part # BDW15008 can be used in your utility trailer but it would draw more amperage than what your 7-way power circuit is rated for. Most likely your truck has a 40 amp fuse protecting it's 12 volt circuit and this winch draws up to 120 amps at capacity.
So the solution is a wiring kit that can carry the higher amperage needed like with the part # BDW20207 which is a 24 foot long 2 gauge wiring kit that runs to the vehicle battery. This allows the winch to draw power... view full answer...
Unfortunately the ~16 gauge wires used on a 4-pole trailer connector would deliver only a fraction of the power required to run a winch.
There are two basic alternatives, as you stated. You could run a cable from the battery back to the truck, terminating in a quick disconnect which would plug into a quick disconnect installed on the trailer mounted winch, using a wiring kit like # BDW20207.
The second option would be to have a secondary battery installed on the trailer to power... view full answer...
The LT3000 winch, # SW1130220, is a good choice for pulling a 2,350 pound vehicle onto your trailer. With a rolling load (your vehicle) on a 17 degree slope (typical range for a trailer ramp) the winch will have a 7,825 pound rolling load capacity.
For trailer mounting these winches are mounted directly to the trailer frame with bolts that go through the mounting plate provided on the winch. If you would like the winch to be removable you could mount it to the SuperWinch Hitch Mounted... view full answer...
The Bulldog Winch part # BDW10031 would be a great winch for your application. You would want to center the drum with the center of your trailer so that when pulling the vehicle onto the trailer it would be pulling it straight and not to the side.
Having the winch in the very front of the trailer would not be a problem either. That's generally where most people mount winches. The cable is 47-1/2 feet long so that wouldn't be an issue at all. view full answer...
Bulldog Winch # BDW10043 is a great choice when you need a heavy-duty electric winch for an off-road vehicle, but for your gooseneck trailer application we have a similarly-rated model that I recommend instead, Bulldog part # BDW10039.
This winch offers 6-hp, a wireless remote, slightly faster line speed, and a rolling load capacity of 120,000-lbs. The static capacity is still 12K. The winch includes a 100-percent load holding brake and a 90-foot aircraft-grade galvanized steel cable.... view full answer...
Yes, the Superwinch Winch 2 Go 4000SR part # SW1140232 will hold while you are making the steering adjustments on the vehicle. It has a 4,000 lb line pull capacity but please keep in mind that the vehicle, assuming the wheels turn freely is considered a rolling load so the actual line pull strength needed to move the vehicle will be far less than the actual weight of the vehicle. For example, if the vehicle weighs 4,000 lbs then it could very well only take 2,500 lb of line pull to move... view full answer...
Electric winches over 9K such as # SW1595201 tend to use 2 gauge wire. For this particular winch I recommend wiring kit # BDW20207 which comes with quick disconnects and the wiring. If the winch is going to be at the front of a vehicle I recommend # BDW20205.
And for quick disconnects by themselves you can use # BDW20133. view full answer...
