Trailer winches
Thinking about a winch mounted on the trailer for easy movement of large piles of crap. Anyone have any suggestions? Was thinking about picking up some 25 dollar Harbor Freight kids toy but of someone knows of a deal for something capable, I'll listen.

Re: Trailer winches
I'd look at the HF badlands winches they've reviewed well. Or the smittybilt xrc winches which are affordable and reliable from my experience

Re: Trailer winches
x2 on the Smittybilts. They pop up cheap on Craigslist from time to time.

Re: Trailer winches
ATV winch with a snatch block? May not have the length of cable you'd need.

Re: Trailer winches
I'm also in the ATV winch camp, I have my old 8k winch setup for use on my flatbed and it's overkill.

Re: Trailer winches
I have a 12,000 winch on my trailer, used to be on my Suburban. Mile Marker that I bought a long time ago.
It defiantly will pull up just about anything onto the trailer.

Re: Trailer winches
Nope. Thought I would see the general consensus on it.

Re: Trailer winches
I probably should have asked people what they thought, huh?

Re: Trailer winches
Yep, I'd say it's a bit on the low end. But I'm wondering how much effort is needed to get a bronco up a ramp if the tires hold air. Four to six adults?

Re: Trailer winches
Two. One with a shoulder that is still healing and another with a sprained back. So long as you are starting on pavement.
