That winch is way too small. I have a 12 volt 8000lb wench to tilt over my 472 (double line), and it is just barely able to safely do the job. Although the 2000 lb winch might lift it into position, it will not hold it at an angle, or be able to stop it on the way down. It will just spool all of the cable off and slam your tower into the ground. Let me know if your experience differs.
