Hello All,

I just had a quick look online and I found a 12000 pounds or 5443.10844 kg capacity winch for a four wheel drive that is on sale and has a $200 Australian dollar discount!

However, I do not know if this winch has adequate capacity to move the dead weight of a 30 CWT Chevrolet/Holdens General Service truck? So, I do not want to swoop on the deal and get left with something not capable of doing the intended job.

Would the 12000 pounds 5443.10844 kg winch be capable of the job or is it too under-capacity. If it is not up for the job - what capacity should I be looking for?

One good thing is that the length of cable shown in the advertisement for the winch was identified as 26 metres of synthetic rope. One question answered!

Kind regards
Lionel
