The S5500 Winch continues Superwinch's dominance as the leader in trailer-specific winching. The S5500 trailer winch easily pulls 5,500 lbs powered by its 3.6 hp permanent magnet motor, and its all steel 3-stage planetary gear box. The S5500 includes a safety tinted protective cover which protects the cable, drum and operators fingers. The machined aluminum free-spool lever can also be operated easily by foot.
