Video Transcript for Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit Review

Today we're going to review part number BDW20205. This is the Bulldog Fully Assembled Front Wiring Kit. This kit will provide a power connection for your wench at the front of your vehicle. Right here, this part that goes on your vehicle is designed to . The wires are long enough to run from the battery in your vehicle to the front grill of the vehicle. This is fully assembled right here.

The wires you can see, the black and the red wires, are each about 7 1/2 feet in length. The red one is your power wire. The black one will be your ground wire. They do have the looped ends, the connectors on them, made to hook to your battery post. The red wire, being your power wire, would go to your positive post.

Your black is your negative ground, would go to your negative side of your battery. Now, also, included is this nice dust cover with a wire tether for the vehicle side. When you're not connected to your wench, you can just put this on. It helps protect the terminals from any of the elements. Now, the gauge size on both the power and the ground is 2 gauge wire size. This kit also comes with the other half of the connector, right here.

It comes with the two halves. One's already installed for the vehicle. This one's for your wench. What you'd want to do is .. It comes with these two high grade copper terminals that are silver plated.

They are designed to accept a wire gauge size of anywhere from 0 gauge up to 4 gauge wire. Your wires from your wench will go into here with them connected. All you have to do is put them in here with the wire connected. Make sure you get your positive and negative in the right one. Then just push it all the way in. You'll hear them click into place. Do the other one. You put the hook down. Put it in there with the wire attached. Push it all the way in. Now your terminals are ready to go. This would be onto your wench. When you go to hook your wench to the front of your vehicle, just go ahead and pull off the dust cap. It's on there pretty snug. This will be from your wench. All you have to do is line it up. Go ahead and line them up. Push it right in. It has a very nice, snug, weatherproof connection. Then you can operate your wench from the front of your vehicle. When you want to remove your wench off the vehicle, just disconnect it, just like that. Go ahead and put your dust cover back on. Then this will be attached to your wench. Very simple installation. Also, you'll notice it does come with some cables, extra cable ties, to help secure any length of wire that might be hanging down. That should do it for the review on part number BDW20205, the Bulldog Fully Assembled Front Wiring Kit. .

Great setup. I love being able to quick connect my winch, jumper cables and inverter, and not having to mess with the hood and battery anymore. Next project is to run a second one to the rear.

A year later and everything is working just as well as the day Ive installed it. No more messing around under the hood. Ive since about a few more quick connect ends for other accessories, all work great.



by:

Hi quality product, better than I expected. Also reasonably priced. It will be a quality accessory added to the vehicle and be interchangeable to the next vehicle I purchase. Thanks etrailer for making my shopping easier. AND Talk about quick service and delivery all 5 Star for me. I purchased both front and rear hook ups for my winch or other things that will need power and they are both just what the doctor ordered.



by:

Will give me a good way to mount a removable winch on my truck. I have use before and they work well.

  • Recommended Electric Winch, Winch Receiver Mount, and Quick Connect Wiring for Complete System
    For an electric winch like the Bulldog Winch Standard Series Off-Road Winch # BDW10043, you can use a receiver mount like the Bulldog Winch Receiver Mount Kit - 2" x 2" # BDW20155. This makes location easy and you can absolutely add the quick connect wiring like you mentioned. For a 7-1/2 foot long option, use # BDW20205. For a 16 foot long option, use # BDW20043. For a 24 foot long option, use # BDW20026. You may also want the mounting bracket # 18140 to secure the connection to like...

  • Recommended Wiring Kits For Trailer With Electric Linear Actuators
    We have several wiring kits that may work well for you. I have attached a link to our product page for wiring kits we offer. You can use the filters on the page to find a wiring kit that will work for you. For example if you need a wiring kit 20 feet long you can check out part # BDW20206. If you only need a kit that is 7-1/2 feet long you can use part # BDW20205. Both of these kits use 2 gauge wire and have the male and female connectors. None of the wiring kits are listed as waterproof.

  • Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2011 Ford F-350 Extraction Winch
    Your 2011 Ford F-350 with a GVWR of 10,800lbs is the maximum amount the vehicle can weigh fully loaded. Depending on your configuration your curb weight is likely between 6,000-7,500lbs. Since you plan on using for a winch and mud will be involved I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH59FR. It has a maximum line pull rating of 10,000lbs. By using the Bulldog Winch Receiver Mount Kit # BDW20155 you will have the capability to move the winch to either...

  • Wiring Needed to Power Dump Trailer Directly From Truck Battery
    A 24 foot power and ground wire kit part # BDW20207 would be a great solution for the wiring on the vehicle side of the setup and then from there to the battery on the trailer we have shorter kits like the part # BDW20205.

  • Recovery Winch Recommendation for a 2003 Ford F-250 Diesel
    The Talon Series Winch, # SW1612201, that you referenced is a large winch and may be overkill for your truck. The Talon winches are high-performance recovery winches that they will have a faster line pull, an adjustable clutch, an upgraded remote and they offer a synthetic rope option that will not bind or fray like the steel cables. For your 2003 Ford F-250 Diesel, I recommend looking at the Rock 98 Off-Road Winch, # SW1698201. We have installed this on a 2004 F-250 and made a demonstration...

  • Recommended Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver And Winch For 2020 Ram 2500
    We have exactly the parts you are looking for. For a front mount trailer hitch receiver I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH37FR since it has a 10000lb line pull rating, which is the highest rating out of all of the options confirmed to fit your 2020 Ram 2500 4x4 Crew Cab Short Bed Diesel. I included a picture of the # EH37FR installed for you to take a look at. Moving on to a winch I recommend the Bulldog Winch Alpha Series Off-Road Winch # BDW10047...

  • Recommended 12000lb Winch and Quick Disconnect Wiring
    We have exactly the parts you are looking for. Starting with the winch I recommend the Bulldog Winch Standard Series Off-Road Winch - Synthetic Rope # BDW10046 would be a great option that has the 12000lb rating you are looking for, and automatic mechanical brake will hold 100% of the load to minimize winch creep. For a quick disconnect connection I recommend the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit # BDW20205 if you are planning on mounting the winch to the front of your vehicle, or the Bulldog...

  • Recommended Power Leads To Use With Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set BDW20298
    The Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set part # BDW20197 is composed of the Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set part # BDW20298 and the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit part # BDW20205. Therefore, it sounds like you are just looking for the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit part # BDW20205.

  • Recommended Front Mounted Trailer Hitch And Winch For A 2022 Ram 2500 Diesel
    For your 2022 Ram 2500 I recommend the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # C31089. This hitch has a 9,000lb Line Pull capacity, 500lb Vertical load capacity, and a Gross trailer weight capacity of 5,000lbs. The receiver tube is the only visible portion of this trailer hitch for a sleek hidden design. For the winch I recommend the Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead - 9,800lbs # BDW66FR. This winch has a higher weight capacity than your front...

  • Winch Recommendation to Pull a 2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty Out of Mud
    I strongly recommend getting the highest capacity winch possible to pull your 2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty out of mud. I would not rely on a 1,500 or 3,000 lb winch to pull your truck out of mud. Keep in mind that when your truck is stuck and you want to use a winch to pull it out, you are pulling the weight of the truck plus the weight of the mud and any additional force against the truck that is created by the mud. All of the front mounted hitches that we carry for your truck have a 9,000...

  • Recommended 2 Gauge Wire Extension and Quick Connects for ComeUp Seal Gen2 Winch
    For your ComeUp Seal Gen2 Off-Road Winch # CU295955, I recommend the Bulldog Winch Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End - 2 Gauge - 7-1/2' Long # BDW20205 to give you the additional wire and connections you need for the relocation.

  • Can 14/2 Wire be Used to Power Winch from Truck Battery
    You will not want to use 14/2 wire to supply power to your winch as that is 14 gauge wire which isn't thick enough. Instead you will want to use a kit like part # BDW20205 or # BDW20207 which uses 2 gauge wire. Winches can pull upwards of 350 amps so it takes pretty heavy-duty wiring.

  • What Quick Connects Do I Need to Install Quick Connect On My Bulldog Winch
    It sounds like you're looking for the quick disconnect that goes on the cables of your winch. If you've got a Bulldog winch you can use the Bulldog Winch Quick-Connect Set for Powersports w/Dust Cover - 6 AWG # BDW20047 if your winch has 6 gauge wires; if your winch has 1/0 gauge wires you'll want to use # BDW20172. Using one of these two parts will allow you to put the quick disconnect ends on your Bulldog winch. Once you've installed these on your winch, you'll be able to use the Bulldog...

  • Is Core of Bulldog Winch Wiring Kit BDW20348 Copper Clad Aluminum
    The core of the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit part # BDW20348 is copper clad aluminum. All of the connectors between the # BDW20348, # BDW20205 and # BDW20018 do match between each other.

  • Mounting a Winch Plate and Front Mount Trailer Hitch on a 2007 Toyota Tundra 2WD
    I spoke with my contact at Curt and he stated that the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch, # 31198, will not sit flush with the bumper on your 2007 Toyota Tundra 2WD, but about 2-3 inches back. We offer the Curt Electric Winch Mount Plate, # C31010, that has three pin holes that will allow you to adjust the distance of the winch plate from the vehicle. The measurement from the furthest pin hole to the mounting plate is 8-1/4 inches. I have attached a picture showing these measurements. This...

  • Mating Plug For Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set Quick Connect - 2 Gauge
    There are a couple of options for a mating plug and wiring for the Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set - Quick Connect to Clamp - 2 Gauge # BDW20298. It just depends on the length you want; either 7-1//2 feet with the Bulldog Winch Front Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End # BDW20205 or 20 feet with the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End # BDW20206.

  • Wiring Kit to Wire Up Winch on Trailer to Tow Vehicle Battery Solution
    Best option would be a winch wiring kit like the Bulldog Winch part # BDW20207 which is 2 gauge wire and 24 feet long. This could be ran from the front of your truck (to the battery) to the back where another wiring could like the # BDW20205 to wire to the winch itself. This kit is 7-1/2 feet long. We have several different lengths available that you can see at the attached link. You would want to measure out what length would work best on your setup and then go with best matching options...

  • Are the Two Halves of Bulldog Winch Quick Connects # BDW20133 the Same
    The two halves of Bulldog Winch Quick Connects # BDW20133 are interchangeable as long as you follow the labeled positive and negative. You will need two sets, and you will use one half for the winch, one for the front of the truck, one for the back and one for the trailer for a total of 2 sets. If you want the wiring kits then use # BDW20207 for the rear and # BDW20205 for the front. For install details and some product demonstration videos, click the provided links.

  • Charging Dump Trailer Battery Recommendations
    The CTEK 12-Volt Universal Battery Charger w/ Pulse Maintenance # CTEK56353 is a charger that you'd use when the trailer is parked. It plugs into a wall outlet and will charge your dump trailer battery all the way up quickly. It would not be a charger that could charge the trailer battery as the truck and trailer are travelling down the road. I attached a review video for the charger for you to check out as well. If you wanted to directly charge the winch off your truck battery then...

  • Can Bulldog Winch Hitch Mount Fit Front and Rear Hitch of 2009 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    The hitch mounted winch mount from Bulldog Winches part # BDW20155 would allow you to mount a winch at either the front or the rear of a truck like your 2009 Chevy Silverado 2500HD. For a front of vehicle wiring kit that has 2 gauge wire you'd want the part # BDW20205 and then for a rear vehicle kit you'd want the part # BDW20207.

  • Can Bulldog Winch Wiring Kit Keep Charge on Trailer Battery
    You can provide a maintenance charge to your battery with the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit # BDW20206 and # BDW20205 but there is a better way to keep this maintenance charge, which is to run 10 gauge wiring from 12 volt pin of your trailer's 7-way to the battery. If you have a 7-way all you would need to do is run the correct length of (sold by the foot) 10 Gauge Primary Wire # 10-1-1. You will run this wire from the 7-way to the positive terminal on the trailer battery and ground the...

  • Hitch Mount, Wiring, Wireless Remote, and Winch Cover for Bulldog Winch Alpha Series Winch
    To mount the Bulldog Winch Alpha Series Off-Road Winch # BDW10048 to a 2 inch hitch receiver, you will want the Bulldog Winch Hitch Mounted Winch Mounting Plate with Handles # BDW20011. This winch mount will make it easy to transfer the winch from the 2 inch front hitch to the 2 inch rear hitch of your Jeep Commander. Keep in mind that when the winch is mounted to the hitch, the capacity of the winch will be limited to the hitch's capacity. I confirmed with my contact at Bulldog Winch that...
