Question:
I have a two position car hauler trailer with a winch at the front for loading disabled vehicles. I am seeking a cable guide to mount in the deck at the rear of the trailer to use the winch as assistance in removing disabled vehicles once they are loaded. Basically the cable be looped from under this pulley and thread back towards the vehicle to connect to the rear to the vehicles frame, so I can use the winch to pull the vehicles off. Do you have such a thing?

It sounds like you're looking for a pulley block like part # BDW20004. I would think some sort of D-ring tied into the frame of the trailer would provide a good mount for the pulley block. I looked through our selection of D-rings, and the highest capacity we offer is the # RR5K. You'd want something with sufficient capacity to handle the largest vehicle you expect to have to haul off. Since you're dealing with a rolling load, 5K should be plenty but I would be sure that the ring is tied into the structure of the framing of the trailer, instead of just being bolted to the deck.
