Welcome to the forum. Can't go wrong with the KFI winch mount. Winch brand is whatever your preference or budget will allow. I would recommend at least a 3500 lb though.

X2 in the KFI mount.
I have run Harbor Freight winches next to Warn and Smittybilt and have not once been let down.
They have been on everything from tag trailers to Excursions and Jeeps.
Just get one that is rated at least 2.5 times your vehicle weight to compensate for side pulls, up hill pulls, weight of gear and additional accessories, drag from mud or sand.
You get the idea, in this case a larger winch is better.
I run a 5000 lbs cap. Badlands with synthetic rope on my P700-4.
Always keep a few clevises and tree savers handy and go forth to unstick the stuck.

IMO, for the P5 you can’t beat the Strong Made Bumper. Kills two birds with one stone. Very simple installation, looks good, and is practical.

Awesome, thanks guys can't wait to get it accessorized and hit the trails. On a tight budget and just want something to get me out when stuck and reliable. Also looking into a roof and rear cargo storage for tools, jump box, gas can, ect. Again thanks guys.

For me and my priorities on the 0700-4 I found it to be a roof and windshield first,
Then a winch and front and rear lights.
Now I am looking at a dual battery setup (I ordered the isolator kit from the site store last night) and a switch panel.
I have read (but need to find it again) that a member on here sells switch panels.
Good luck with your build and post pics, lots of pics.
