Question:
Hi, I am wanting to set up my F150 for a Superwinch Tiger Shark 11500 on a receiver mount. Looks like this would be the wiring kit I would need for the rear. I also have a receiver upfront. Do you have a double wire connector available for the front? This way I could attach the winch in either location quickly. Will I be able to wire the TS 11500 using this kit? Thanks for your help,

Expert Reply:
The Superwinch Trailer and Vehicle Electric Winch Wiring Kit, for up to 16.5K Winches, # BDW20207, will work well to install a wiring connection at the rear of your Ford F-150.
However for a connection at the front of your truck you will need a shorter cable to run to the battery. I recommend the Bulldog Winch Wiring Kit, # BDW20205. This kit will give you 7-1/2 feet of cable to wire from the front receiver to the battery. The cable is 2 gauge which will be thick enough to handle the power draw from your Superwinch. The kit will also include the two pole couplers that will make for easy connections between your winch and truck.
