    I have the exact same atv. Orange is such a rare colour. I haven't seen any other quad in orange madness.
    This video is fantastic. You really helped me out with my new winch install.
    Thank you

      I’m glad it’s still helping others, wish I’d done some editing to streamline the video, I still have that quad.

    This video is AWESOME. Thanks so much for uploading, I didn't even know the ATV was prewired. This is a great vid on how to PROPERLY install a winch. For those who don't know you can actually power aftermarket (non-polaris plug and play) solenoids using the accessory orange/white wire under the dust cover.

    Everything I needed came with the winch. I purchased this from my local Polaris dealer Rocky Mountain cycle plaza.

    Thanks for the video. Next time try editing, watching you bolt down a screw for like 2 mins was brutal

    Do you have to have a winch mount? Most of the winch companies sell them.
    Also, love the TP in your storage compartment! LOL

    Yes its the same size as the battery cable and the same size as the one up front, look along the frame its zip tied and tucked in right behind the battery.

    Yes, you just have to power aftermarket (non-polaris plug and play) solenoids using the accessory orange/white wire under the dust cover

    Did you have to purchase a mount kit with the winch? Or did everything come with the kit? Also where did you order it from? Great video though, made it look pretty easy

    • @sikminesta

      ​@@sikminestavery handy to know. I was just going to use the existing Polaris wires for my aftermarket (non polaris) winch. Luckily, the control box came with about 6' of already hooked up black and red wires.
      Great contribution to this awesome video

    @JoeythePope Před 11 lety

    I installed mine in about 2 hours... nothing to it if you are handy.
