Would this winch be able to pull a 4000 lb car onto a trailer?

I'm going to say yes- but if you have any doubt do a double line pull with an extra pully.

Depends on the combined weight or the trailer and the car. This wd hitch is rated for hitch weights up to 1000#,

AFTER I purchased it the instruction thing said, "Not for towing." -Basically it is for bike racks etc only. In my case, when I received it, I threw it to the side till I needed it to find this out. (well past any return time)I do not know the answer to the weight it can pull. Sorry.

I think they only have an 840 pound limit. If your boat and trailer exceed that, it would be unsafe.

I bought this receiver to accommodate my 4500 lb super winch, it fits very good! As far as a 8500lb it would be to small.

I strongly doubt it. I would say that the max pull would be no more than 350lbs.

I don't know what the weight limit is on it, but I used it to load a lawn tractor into the back of a pick up truck and it worked great. It's meant for ATVs so I think it should work for you.

If can find a place to mount it, the winch will definitely perform as advertised. I know it will pull 1000 pounds up a flight of stairs.

It will. Max capacity is 100psi although not sure how well it will handle long term running that high. I average 20psi no trailer and 60psi only when towing.

It's should, you can double check by just measuring the bolt pattern. I think most the winches are 4.5 inches

Most cars weigh 2800 to 4500 pounds. This winch is rated for 8000 pounds. Most experts on rigging suggest having a winch 2x the strength needed. So, yes, if you are doing vehicle recovery for vehicles stuck in snow, mud & ditches, it's perfect. If you need a winch to pull a semi-truck weighing 12,000 pounds,than no. M-8000 (8 thousand pound rating).

Yes but you'd have to be careful about the winch.... Plenty of room for a standard one but don't go too big

I wouldn't think so. The handle is sturdy but I believe that the way it is attached would give you problems. 500 lbs would be a lot to tow from one focal point.

You could; however, it is not the heaviest duty option I have seen. The extension walls are thin and I would not feel confident adding a winch.

If you have a drive on trailer and only use the strap to tighten it down , yes. If you winch all the way I think the strap might be a little light,

2,000 lbs. I use it on the trailer winch for a 16' Stumpnocker boat. No problems.

I would think so. We bought it to pull our 28 foot camper that weighs ~5,000# dual axle. There also may be a # you can call directly.We actually you tubed this system before we bought it. So maybe try that too.Hope I was somewhat helpful.
