The Badland winch 9k has a power draw of 300 amps at full load. You need a deep cycle 12V AGM battery that can handle that amperage. I recommend a battery with 650 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA). Badland Winches are an introductory winch with a not so…
For a 12,000 lb. electric car trailer winch like the Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch part #BDW10040, I recommend a standard 12 volt lead acid battery rated up to at least 650 cold cranking amps (CCA). As long as the battery is rated up to 650 CCA then…
A man cave in the attic, sounds like an interesting project that you have going on here. I would love to see pictures of the project once it is completed! The StrongArm AC Powered Winch, #DL25514, that we offer powers in and out to avoid a free-fall…
Is this a winch something that installs on a vehicle? Or would you be plugging it into a wall outlet? What is the 1,200 lb item that is getting pulled? A rolling load? Is there an incline at all? Do you prefer a wire rope or a strap?
Hey Alfredo! Great question. The Furrion Vision S+ Wireless RV Observation System #FR57AD, #FR74AD, and #FR64AD are all capable of recording. The 7" monitor has a micro-SD card slot (must be at least Class 10) and supports cards up to 128GB.…
While we do have a U.S.A. made option, the Bulldog Winch #BDW15018 is made in China. For a great American alternative, the highest capacity U.S.A. made winch we have is the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch w/ Pulley Block, AC Powered #DL24876.…
You will need a 12 volt battery that is rated for more than 55 amps to power your electric winch. Any battery that meets those requirements should work well for you. For most winches that usually means a car battery. I have included a link to the…
Hey Eric, the size of cable for the etrailer Jack #e33VV would depend on how far away the jack is going to be from the battery. So with that in mind, I've gone ahead and attached a chart below which shows the cable sizes with the distances. If…
The SuperWinch LT2000 Electric Utility Winch, part #1120210, you have referenced will only have a rated line pull of 2,000 lbs. The rated line pull of 2,000 lbs. will pull a rolling load of 10,050 lbs. up a 6 degree incline, but as the incline…
Hard to say for sure given the differences in 5th wheel noses but that's a pretty safe assumption you're going to run into clearance issues with a folding tonneau cover like item #e45DR. A better folding cover option would be the BAKFlip G2…
Hey Edward! As long as you've got the understanding that the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs #SS66RR aren't a confirmed fit for your 2018 Suburban, I have no problems with you trying it out. Worst case is you try them out and they…
You do have a very interesting situation. When it comes to aluminum trailers we always defer to the manufacturer whether it is just a utility trailer or an RV trailer like your toy hauler. Aluminum frames can't always withstand the pressure of a…

Electric winches are essential for off-road enthusiasts, boaters, and trailer users. They provide the power to pull heavy loads with ease, whether you're securing a jetski, loading a race car, or tackling tough terrain. Consider factors like load capacity, remote control options, and installation requirements to find the perfect winch for your needs.
Choose a winch with a load capacity that exceeds your heaviest expected load. For example, a 5,000 lb winch is great for side-by-side vehicles, while a 2,000 lb winch can handle tasks like securing a jetski. Always opt for a higher capacity to ensure safety and efficiency.
A remote control is a game-changer, allowing you to operate the winch from a distance, which is especially useful when loading vehicles or navigating tricky spots. It adds convenience and safety, letting you steer and control the winch simultaneously.
Installation can vary based on your vehicle or trailer setup. Some may require longer bolts or specific mounting plates. It's generally straightforward, but ensure you have the right tools and follow the instructions carefully for a secure fit.
Ropes are lighter and easier to handle, but cables are more durable for heavy-duty tasks. Consider your typical use; if you're frequently in rugged conditions, a cable might be better. For lighter, more frequent use, a rope could be more convenient.
Be aware of potential issues like overheating during heavy pulls or mismatched components like ropes instead of cables. Regular maintenance and ensuring compatibility with your setup can prevent these problems and extend the winch's lifespan.
