Winch To Move A 600lb Toolbox Up And Down A Trailer Ramp

Updated 12/16/2020 | Published 12/13/2020

Question:

Hi, I am loading a 26 Uhaul trailer with several large snap-on toolboxes. Getting these toolboxes up the ramp required ratchet straps and block and tackle, and was a 2 man job and was extremely slow and difficult. I would like to buy a winch to mount inside the trailer so I can slowly lower the chest down the ramp as a single man operation and wondered if I would be able to use the following winch? The chests are about 600 lbs. Superwinch LT2000 ATV Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead - 2,000 lbs Item # 1120210
