Hey Kris, the Dutton Lainson winch part #DL15440 does not come with a strap so you will need to order one with it. The part #DL24250 will work great with this winch as it is correct width, is 25 feet in length, and has a capacity of 3,700 lb WLL and…
Unfortunately it will not Bill but congrats on the car! There's been two generation changes with big redesigns on the Corolla so the older hitch isn't going to be transferable. To add a hitch to your 2025 Toyota Corolla LE, I recommend the…
The 2-Speed Boat Trailer Winch part #315-W3200D is an excellent upgraded 3,200 lb winch for a boat trailer. In regards to mounting, not all winches use the same pattern so you'd need to compare the dimensions in the photo below to what you have…
Hey Terry! It looks like there is a little delay on when it will be back in stock but the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch #DL15440 is still around as far as I can tell. We don't have any notes on this winch being discontinued. The #DL14881 is available…
Hey Bill, so if it was me I would go with the Dutton Lainson winch part #DL17085 over the Fulton. I really like DL winches because they are well made, very reliable, and made in the USA. Fulton winches aren't terrible but DL winches win if for…
I really like the Dutton-Lainson Covered Hand Winch #DL17048 for your 2003 Ranger 205 boat because it's covered to it looks more sleek, and it has a 1,900 lb weight rating which means it can easily handle the weight of your trailer even if you…
Hey Jason, welcome back! The 15" x 6" Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel item #AM20537 will work if you have 2" or more clearance between the side wall of your current tire and your trailer's frame. This wheel is only going to be…
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…
Hey Dave, for a saltwater boat trailer, powder-coated wheels wouldn't be my first choice, but they can still last quite a while if you're good about rinsing them thoroughly after each launch and sealing any chips or cracks in the finish as…
Hey David, we have an exact replacement winch for your DL600A with the part #DL14125. Then for a strap to go with it you you will also want the BoatBuckle part #IMF05848 and you'd be set. Is this for a boat trailer?
Hello Robert, Thanks for writing in! There's a good reason you've had a hard time finding that Fulton jack. Unfortunately, Fulton products are no longer being produced, so once the remaining inventory sold out, they became very difficult to…
Hey Dan, welcome back! I do indeed have a Black Armour mat designed for trailers. It's the Heavy-Duty Trailer Mat item #BA96AR. It measures 5' wide x 7' long and is made of 1/2" thick rubber. This is the only size and option I have…
WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!
Get steady, no-drama pulls for boats, pontoons, or yard gear with a trailer winch that uses a ratcheting hand crank. The ratchet helps with controlled cranking and smooth operation when inching a hull to the bow stop or easing equipment onto a trailer. Winch stands are pretty universal, but you may need small mounting tweaks, and slotted holes can help with alignment.
Check clearance for any front cover and the handle; tight cowlings or long handles can interfere on some trailers. Make sure bolt orientation won't rub the strap. Verify the hook size matches your bow eye. If you're around salt or wet storage, look for corrosion resistance to help it look good a year later. Confirm the ratchet direction works for your over- or under-wrap.
Pick a capacity that's at least 1/3 of your boat's weight. If you're near the limit, a two-speed with a strong low gear makes pulling to the bow roller much easier. If you also use it for equipment, factor that load too. Confirm the handle swing and any cover clearance so you can crank comfortably without interference.
A ratcheting hand crank gives smoother operation and control and helps hold the load as you crank. Use low gear for the heavy pull and high gear to take up slack if your winch has two speeds. It's been used effectively on pontoons and larger boats without having to gun the motor. For beach or steeper ramps, low gear makes it easier on your shoulder.
In most cases, yes, but you may need small modifications. Compare your stand to the winch's mounting hole layout; many use slotted holes to help the fit. Install the mount bolts so the heads and threads don't contact the strap or belt. Mounting hardware is typically not included, so plan bolts and washers to match your plate thickness.
