Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes the Dutton Lainson 2 speed winch part # DL14830 would be a really great option for your Trailex car hauler. It has more than enough capacity so it will be easy to crank and since it's a 2 speed winch it gives you ability to crank faster when you don't need quite as much leverage or slower when you need more pull strength.
