Im not going to say it wouldnt work..but for the price diff why not a warn worx?
 
I have a 3000 on my TJ and it does the job well. I would get a winch with a load holding brake. The first winch I used didn't have one and I had to continually tap the button to keep it sucked down.

Definitely get one with a load holding brake. The one you listed will not work as well as you will probably want it to.

The Warn 3000 works well for this.

The Warn Works would be the way to go, But I thought I would ask seeing the $60 price difference, and my budget is tight, But I don't want to waste the money if it won't work

I have heard about the locking brake, the warn does have one.

The northern looked ok for the price $50, Like I said not worth it if is junk

And I guess it is possible to wire it to a mounted momentary toggle switch, the warn that is
