The Shelby Trailer Winch 5409B is a single speed brake hand winch with a 2,100 lb capacity. It was discontinued some time ago. In order to replace this winch I recommend using the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL15721. The Dutton-Lainson winch has an automatic brake for safety, zinc coating for protection, and 2,500 lb capacity. If you also need a new wire rope to go with this winch I recommend the Hand Winch Cable with Safety Hook part # DL24102.

I have attached a review video of the winch and wire rope for you as well to check out.

The Dutton Lainson winch part #DL14627 that you referenced does not come with a strap so you'd need to order the part #DL24249 with it which is a 25 foot long strap.

I do have a potential solution for you, but Shelby is out of business so we cannot provide replacement parts for your winch. We would have to replace the whole winch. The winch I highly recommend to replace your Shelby 5352 winch is the…
