After a long wait (December 4th), I finally got my 700 in! Really excited to get started upgrading! I ordered a ton of upgrades before I actually got the SXS in...lol!

I've done a lot of reading on here so thanks to everyone who post here! I'm going to post all my upgrades along with pictures and notes for futures readers!

I bought it with a top, hard coat front windshield and rear panel. So, I'll be carrying it back to the dealer because they installed just an optic front windshield and the rear panel is different for the 2017 than the previous models (first learning curve).

To follow suit...here's the picture before any upgrades! A0b93226a3f1474b02cf53ca20b9e094

That looks very thorough. What I suggest along with that is a tube of Di-electric grease and some star washers. All your grounds to the frame, use both. All connections, add some grease. This will displace the water and prevent corrosion. Are you looking at the winch on top of the bumper or in the bumper? Myself I went inside the bumper, I wanted it somewhat out of the way.

Definitely on the grease and star washers...but thanks for the heads up! I don't want to miss out on anything I should do...lol! Will save a lot of headache down the road.

For the winch...I was thinking on top, but will prolly make that decision as I get closer to that install. Was thinking top only because it would be easier to get to if I needed to use it. Have you had to use yours yet?

I also mounted mine down low. Reason being, you have more options on what to tie to and pull from with your winch low and still have an upward angle on the cable, therefore the winch pulls you up and out of mud or other obstacles rather than down into them.

That make any sense?

I think the top spot is where my light bar will go. Thoughts on the cheaper ones from amazon vs the rigid ones?

Like the thought process! You might have just swayed my mind to mounting underneath! Thanks!

Forgive my ignorance. What is the "Ground Trigger Switch"?

I have two triggers...one is the ignition trigger that turns on all accessories when the ignition is turned on. The second...the ground trigger...allows accessories (low power, dome light, bed light, and hazard lights) to be powered without the ignition turned on.

I am using the PDM 60 that allows circuits to programmed with either trigger or both.
