Collection: Truck Winches

Start with the loaded weight of the vehicle and choose a winch with a meaningful safety margin rather than selecting capacity by vehicle size alone. Heavier trucks, added armor, cargo and trailers can all change recovery requirements. Synthetic rope is lightweight and easy to handle, while steel cable offers excellent abrasion resistance for demanding environments. Also consider mounting location, fairlead style, electrical draw, remote-control options and access to recovery points. A complete recovery setup should include properly rated shackles, straps or other compatible equipment. Check product-specific fitment and capacity information before installation, and never exceed the working limits of any component in the recovery system.
