I've just completed a write up (with lots of pictures) for installing a Warn 3000# winch on an Arctic Cat ATV. Even though this is a branded winch with custom wiring harness I think it could help anyone wanting to install their own winch.

If you look through this and see anything that I can add to make this better for someone else, just let me know and I'll get the changes in asap.

Here's the link to the article - LINK. <--CLICKY!!  Beer Me Beer Me

It was down today for maintenance. Actually, I was just giving the old girl a rest. I still haven't moved my personal site to my host yet.

Someday. :-)

Did you get the LE bumpers front and rear? I get a LOT of compliments on how tough they look. Should have put them on the TBX.

yes, I ordered both front and rear LE Bumpers, I figured it was a good investment since the price of a rear fender or a headlamp would equal the price of the bumpers, if that big stick or branch should smack it. Jump Rapidrobert

Got my winch installed.
thanks for the info, I put a wired remote control on mine as well as the rocker switch for ease of rolling in the cable on the spool, still waiting on the rear bumper it is on backorder. I would like to get some riding time in on it before snurt, but it doesn't look to good at this point due to the cold and snow. My ride the outlander for snurt or my sled if it doesn't get warmer.  Rapidrobert...
