Steve, I have a two year old H&H tandem axle tilt bed trailer with a Ramsey winch mounted on it. I don't know the model number of the winch as I bought it used and mounted it myself. I use a jumper pack to operate it as a battery adds tongue weight, gets stolen easily, and never seems to have a good charge when I need it. I have hauled my '48 B-1-PW with this setup and it works very good, not just for loading but for unloading (vehicles with no brakes). It has a remote control so I can walk along and steer the vehicle on or off, where I can see the trailer fenders better than if I drive it. I am very well satisfied with this setup. Dave P.S. A month ago a friend of mine moved and he had his '76 F250 4x4 cab and bed packed full of boxes of stuff from his garage. We winched it onto the trailer but the winch ran slow. I thought that the booster pack needed to be charged, but when we got to his new digs the truck would not roll off the trailer. We unloaded some boxes from the cab and found the trans. in gear and the transfer case in low four wheel, so that winch has plenty of power.
