Greg,

The Fulton "K" family of winches are rated for "lifting".

The catalog is at:

http://www.fultonperformance.com/Couplers/pdfs/Ceq-Couplers-pgs19-25-08.pdf

The KW3000 is at the top of their "K" line and seems more attractive than 
the K2550  because of the worm gear architecture vs. friction brake.

Thanks,
Gene K5GS
