I got the cheapest HF remote winch about three years ago. Also got a "pulley hook" so I can double line pull. My ramps are short and pretty steep, and I have pulled 4,000 pound rolling cars on with no problem. Don't use it much (just in case I brake my race car), but never had a problem. Great deal on sale for $49. The winch is bolted to the trailer tongue. I have mine wired right from the truck battery with 8 gauge wire, to the trailer connector, and then from the connector to the winch with 10 gauge. I did find out the remote batteries give no warning before going out. Worked one day, didn't work the next. I keep a spare set of batteries in the glove box.
