P500 Winch size

[solrus]

Im looking to install a winch on my p5 and wondering if a 3500lb is enough or should i go bigger?

Superwinch Terra 4500 lbs steel cable. I prefer still since I dont use it often, so no maintenance needed and price is right.

For the price on Amazon Prime, the Terra 4500 is hard to beat:

I said most not all, I couldn't remember the one (Superwinch) that was close. Thanks for looking.

AMP Draw wasn't the only reason, apparently the MileMarker pulls so hard it snaps cables rated for use with it, I'll replace the 80' of steel rope with @12000lb synth and be happy.

(only 38' of synth will fit on the KFI SE45 and probably something similar with other 4500lb winches)

That Mile Marker Winch is pretty decent found the 3500 Synthetic for $349 + matching wireless Remote for another $112

Might consider Superwinch Terra series

I have the Superwinch Terra 4500.
I love it, but not saying that is the best. I got it for under $200 shipped.
Nice winch and works great for me

I just ordered the KFI 4500LB. I hope it does the job.

It will. I had no problem so far. Get Kong L size dog toy for it as winch hook stopper. All others are too rigid and will splice if over tight.

For P700 owners - XL size and for P1000 extra large and extra long

Plenty, more than enough. Put a 20K on it so you can pull the mountain with you next time, lol.

I have video of terra 3500 pulling me with hand brake locked. Look at P500 video section

I realize this is an old posting but I bought one these after reading about it on this site.....I must admit it really, really works good. I bought the xx-large KONG Extreme.
