Maximum Vehicle Weight

Your GVWR (lbs)

You need a winch with a capacity of at least: 6750 Pounds

With your GVWR of 4500 pounds this winch is strong enough for your vehicle. This winch's capacity is times your GVWR.

Manufacturers recommend a winch capacity 1.5-2 times your GVWR.

Winch Pulling Power vs. Cable Layers

In our chart, you can see that this winch, like all winches, is more powerful with fewer wraps of cable on the drum.

If you need more pulling power, use a winch anchor that's further away or use a snatch block.

More spooled out winch line = More pulling power!

⚠ Safety issue! The first layer should always have at least 5 wraps of cable on the winch drum when the winch is under load.

In the next chart, we look at when different winch line configurations will break when you use the Warn VR EVO 10 Winch 103252.

Stock winch line: 90' 9 mm" diameter Steel

Winch lines break because they get overloaded.

Synthetic winch lines have higher breaking strengths than steel for a given diameter.

Some wheelers switch their winch line - some go up a size in synthetic (i.e. 5/16" to 3/8") to get more strength. Others will go down a size (i.e. 3/8" to 5/16") to get extra length while choosing a synthetic winch rope that has at least as much strength as the factory steel cable.

Tips

• If you're really stuck, help your winch motor and winch line by either digging/moving dirt or repositioning your rig with a Hi-Lift Jack.
• A double winch line using a snatch block is much safer (though slower) than a single winch line.
• Use a winch line damper.
