I have always had Superwinch on or in my trailers with no issues. My current S4000 has been on my trailer outside in the weather for 10 plus years. I hook it up via Warn winch plugs to a battery that I carry with me. I did mount it on/with a trailer hitch mount so I could remove it and use on another trailer. That being said I know many people using the Ching Chong brands in their enclosed trailers with winch rope and having zero problems.
Side note: I have never used winch rope only cable. Obviously the cable sucks for stray wires but I have never known if winch rope holds up being left in the elements.
