Question:
Looking for a winch switch that will shut power until I need to turn the switch back on when I get stuck hunting. Better yet looking for a switch that would handle both front and rear winches. I like the mounting piece for this switch. I think I need a 350 amp switch, could I go with this switch?

Expert Reply:
If you are anticipating needing a switch that is rated for 350 amps then we will need to find you a different switch as the Master Power Shut-Off Kit # BDW20079 is only rated for up to 200 amps.
For your application I recommend using the 500 Amp Shut-Off Switch # BDW20248 or the 400 Amp Shut-Off Switch # BDW20247 which has a removable key. Neither of these options come with a mounting bracket like the one you mentioned but you could mount them to the Mounting Bracket # PK12711U which would give you a similar setup.
Attached is a sample installation video for you to reference.
