😂😂😂😂😂😂 I watched the beginning of this video thinking this guy is ganna some badass 12,000 lbs winch on this 22 foot ALL STEEL trailer and then he opens the lid on the toolbox and it's only a 3 lbs winch 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Anything bigger is unnecessary. Pay attention to the words in the video next time. It's been years now this winch has pulled several heavy duty diesel trucks and equipment on the trailer without issue. Putting a 12k winch on a trailer is idiotic you're rolling vehicles up ramps lmao they're not stuck in the mud 😆
@@roncook8566 not all project vehicles have perfectly aired up tires and ALOT of times project vehicles have locked up brakes I'll stick with my MAN winch you stick to the cute winches ok 😂😂😂 why the FUCK would I wanna continue watching a video of trailer upgrades when a guy has a damn 3 lbs winch on a trailer car anyhow ? I could understand a utility trailer but we're talking about equipment and car trailers 😂😂😂😂😂
I like my 12,000lb winch. doesn't work as hard, and will last a hell of a lot longer. I don't think it's "idiotic" we are all entitled to our own opinions and decisions. I wouldn't cut anyone else down and or make a bold statement that it's "idiotic" persay.. Just saying!@@roncook8566
@@roncook8566 " It's been years now this winch has pulled several heavy duty diesel trucks and equipment on the trailer without issue." I have to call BS on that. I have a 5000lb winch and it does the job, but JUST. There are a lot of issues, using a winch that is not meant for that size of load. You are just either choosing to ignore the issue or you are just lying about them to justify this video and promoting lack of safety.
I'm perfectly fine using a 3500lb winch for a vehicle that rolls and can go into neutral but the problem is when I'm hauling scrap cars 99% of the time they have locked up wheels or are unable to be put In neutral or have 4 flat tires i have used my 12k winch to drag an f350 service body dually with 6 flat tires and locked up brakes onto my trailer and my winch didn't even flinch there are applications for everything 3500lb winches are good for running vehicles unfortunately I never took pics of that load because both my truck and trailer were overloaded 😂😂😂 Less evidence the better😂
I'm one of those guys that got a 12000lb winch for my car trailer 😅. Harbor freight had them 40% off today and the only two left of the 12000k for $227 with tax. I'll be loading some vehicles with broken CVs and totaled cars but I realize it would still be a bit overkill... I have practically the exact same trailer you do though.
This is a really good informative video! Thank you for sharing! I see all the time car haulers with the 5 lug axles and people think you can put 7000lbs on a dual 3500lb 5 lug axle car hauler .but most of them weight around 2,000lbs empty so you can only put 5,000lbs max on a 7k GVRW car hauler trailer. It’s good to know all the different capacities. I’m also wanted a 6lug 83” by 20ft all metal car hauler. As well since a 10,400GVRW like your trailer can haul up to around 8,400lbs. Perfect for trucks and 3/4 ton trucks or really almost anything. I have a 14ft by 83” 7000lb GVRW pipe utitly trailer I used to pick up atvs mowers zero turns all that. I put a 5000lb polestar winch on the front as it was $160 at at woods it’s very well made. I wanted the 3500lb badland zxr winch but it was only 10$ cheaper so I went with the 5,000. As my small 14ft trailer can haul 5400lbs . So if I ever need to winch a small tractor I could as well.
That panel works unbelievably well. Several times I've checked and it was still charging covered in ice or snow. I've popped the lid a handful of times to check the voltage and it's always at least 13.8 volts. Very cool
Nice Video.....I have the 20ft 10lb steel deck version. I got it back in September. And, the first thing I did, being here in NW Indiana, was coat the bottom. I'm looking for setting it up for a winch (removable). Was deciding on powering the winch with cables or battery? I got some cables coming with the winch (13.5k lb) and then I came across your video last night. That just changed my mind on what direction to go with powering the winch. And, using a cane myself, work smarter not harder.
Really nice setup. You put a lot of thought 💭 into that and it's really neat. Any problems with carrying your gear in the box? Straps, chains, ratchets etc. Thanks.
No problems there's a good bit of real estate in there. I keep several straps, chains and binders in there with room to spare. I do want to line the bottom with rubber eventually
I have a spare just not mounted on the trailer yet. Haven't decided on where to put my mount. I'm gonna have two spare hubs when I add electric brakes to the second axle so I plan on keeping them in the toolbox as well
Ron I’ll give you a million dollars you show us ANY trailer manufacturer that sells a brand new trailer intended for pulling vehicles up onto. They have 12,000 lb winches on them for a reason. Your winch is for smaller ATV’s. I have a 300 4X4 ATV that has a bigger winch on it than 3500. You do you, promise you you are incorrect.
Thans for sharing, you actually provided a lot of info here. Your setup looks great
Nice toolbox setup I liked it , I will do something similar to my trailer , thanks for sharing your ideas
Nice video and awesome setup. Definitely gives some great ideas!
Very nice setup. Like it a lot

Looks great, I been thinking about a winch on my trailer to pull up landscaping rocks on a sled.
Great Video/Set Up! Planning to do the same, just larger winch for farm use.
Tganks fir tge bearing race upgrade info 😊

Hose the undercarriage down with surface shield......great product for keeping rust away. Cheers.
You have a lot of great idears
do you ever hit the corners of the box when your turning?
do you have a link for the junction terminals and the SAE box? Great video and creativity. I hope to replicate your box. thanks
With a 12v battery for a winch with the solar panel, in your box, there is no need for a break-away battery too
@@DanMcD80 yeah I want that battery isolated from the winch battery. Kill the battery winching and the breakaway battery is still fine
cleann slim setup bro🤘🏽 when you reverse or turn on full lock does the toolbox hit your truck or get near it?
Nice setup, how is the solar coping?

Yes the bottom on mine still definitely needs done it's almost bare steel 😆 with a nice coat of paint underneath seems like they would last forever 👍
@@roncook8566 definitely hold off the rust. I did make contact with them and you can get one that is primed and painted, rather than just painted.
I put a 12000 pound winch on my truck because it’s in the woods and the mud or snow but everything else I rather have a small winch
love IT, WILL COPY.

Be careful. You'll hit your truck with the corners on that bow. It will limit you turning radius.
Does truck ever hit the box?
Where's your spare?
I have a spare just not mounted on the trailer yet. Haven't decided on where to put my mount. I'm gonna have two spare hubs when I add electric brakes to the second axle so I plan on keeping them in the toolbox as well
This guys talks alot and says nothing
Ron I’ll give you a million dollars you show us ANY trailer manufacturer that sells a brand new trailer intended for pulling vehicles up onto.
They have 12,000 lb winches on them for a reason.
Your winch is for smaller ATV’s.
I have a 300 4X4 ATV that has a bigger winch on it than 3500.
You do you, promise you you are incorrect.
