Winch Ropes & Cables
Winch Cable and Rope
If you use a winch, it's tough to know which type of line to run. You can use either a synthetic winch rope or a steel cable, and it's a genuine decision -- each has real advantages depending on how and where you recover. We stock plenty of options in both.

Measuring your bed
Put a tape measure inside the bed, from the inside of the bulkhead (front wall) to the inside of the closed tailgate. Round to the nearest inch — a 69" measurement is a 5'8" bed.
Bed length is measured inside the box, not along the outside of the truck.

Synthetic Rope vs. Steel Cable
Synthetic winch rope is a popular alternative to steel cables. It's lightweight, flexible, and easy to handle compared to steel. This type of winch rope is popular among emergency responders, and you can harness the same advantages for your own recovery operations.
Your Winch Is Only as Good as Its Line
A winch is only as good as its cable, which means even the most advanced winch can't finish the job if the line isn't up to the task. That's why we carry only dependable winch cable and winch rope replacements -- from galvanized aircraft-grade wire to heat-resistant synthetic rope, there's no shortage of excellent options to choose from.
