For an Anbull 13000-lb winch, I recommend going with a 2 gauge wire like the Bulldog Winch Rear Wiring Kit - Quick Connect to Terminal End, part # BDW20207.

It can handle any winch up to a 16.5K capacity. It is 24 feet long, which is the longest we have.

I've linked to a video review of this kit for you to look at.
