Any brands that are recommended?
How big of a winch should I buy?
I will primarlily use it for the 914/6 race car but 74 911 street car at times as well.
Thanks,
Jay

Most seem to like Superwinch or warn, w/ synthetic rope.
sizing depends, most buy oversize to be able to pull the car w/o rolling wheels ie after an incident that makes the car undriveable. So they choose 3.5k to 4k models
If the car is rolling straight on it's wheels a 2k will be fine, to pull a rolling 2700# car up on to a typical Trailex only takes ~500# which can be generated by a hand crank easily enough.
