I have the 3500 on my machine and it is plenty but if you can mount the 5000 is should work fine. The bigger winches typically have a wider drum and require a wider fair lead and mounting pad. I may be wrong but I believe the amp draw will depend on load and your machine is so light that unless you are completely sunk you probably will not draw any more amps than the smaller winch. One advantage to that bigger winch will be if it has a bigger drum you can re-spool it with smaller diameter rope and have a bunch of line in there. The only real disadvantage will be the extra weight .I can mount it. I was concerned about amp draw on the battery. The 3500 was 149 and the 5000 was 159.
