Here are the basics to choosing a winch.
Q. How do I select a winch for my truck?
A. The most important thing to consider when selecting a winch is whether it is capable of extracting your vehicle. Freeing your truck from a tough spot can mean pulling more than 1 1/2 times your gross vehicle weight (GVW). GVW is the fully loaded weight of your vehicle, i.e. . So fill up your gas tank, load up all those goodies, tools, and go get your weight of the vehicle.
Q. Does a longer cable mean less pulling power?
A. Yes Also, remember that each wrap of cable on the drum decreases the effective leverage on the motor and creates an approximately 12% drop in pulling power.The approximate pulling ability of a 9000-pound winch one each layered wrap of cable around the drum follow: first wrap - 9000 pounds, second wrap - 7920pounds and so fourth.
