Replacement For 3,200 lb Shelby 5480A Winch
Updated 11/06/2023 | Published 11/03/2023
Question:
Hi, I need to buy 2 replacement winches for use on my dock to keep the dock in place. Currently, there are 2 Shelby Industries I understand they went out of business MODEL NO. 5480A CAPACITY 3200 LBS. Do you have a replacement winch for these that can be used in the same way? I have lots of cable wrapped around these that are tied to anchors at the shore. Any help appreciated. Thank you

Expert Reply:
To replace your Shelby 5480A 2-speed winch with one that can be used in the manner you specified, it sounds like you need one with a handbrake. Since you also require one with cable and at least 3,200 lbs, the closest option is the Fulton High-Performance 2-Speed Trailer Winch with Handbrake - Cable Only - Zinc - 3,700 lbs # F142430.
With this winch you'll also need Cable # FWC7500100.
