P1000 What Winch?

[P1000_DLux]

I have been looking at winches and mounting plates. I was looking at the Axion 35-S and 45-S but then I saw some pictures that make me think I may not get a clean fit and finish due to the space by the bumper.

So what do you run?
Easy Install?
Did you have to modify anything to make it fit?

Look in the club store! There good quality winches. I have one. If u pm the head honcho he’ll get u a discount code. Everything u need is in the box. At checkout, it will ask u what machine u have to get the appropriate bracket.

For my type of riding I couldn't come to terms with putting the winch in the factory location. I went with a baddawg bumper with top winch mount. I put a 4k Superwinch on it. $350 for the bumper and $240 (I think) for the winch. I've pulled so many rigs with it. A 4seater RZRturbo on 32's from a sand pond, a rolled XP1k up a 4ft embankment, and it's got my 1k5 out every time. I have a good 20+ pulls on this winch. Its never stalled or had an issue. Quiet, and smooth. I really wasn't expecting much for that price.

My superwinch hasnt let me down in the three years I've had it. While not the sexiest girl in town, they just work.

My RZR had a Badlands 4500. It was loud, grindy, and would stall on a hard pull. The synthetic line was junk as well. I'm really happy with the superwinch. Specially for the money.

I have the super winch also. I've used it quite a bit and have no complaints. I didn't want to have to reach down in whatever mess I might get stuck in so I made a top mount.

Been happy with the Superwinch Terra45

Must have been the 3500; they only make a 3500 and a 5000. My 5k is slow as hell in regards to retrieval but I've yet to stall it or have any sort of issue. I've only used the amsteel blue winch line after breaking two cheapo Amazon specials on the first or second pull.

I have a 55 axon. Its strong but i probably wouldnt buy it again. U have to use their switch and plug. They do not have a wireless setup yet. If the voltage drops too much, the winch will pulse or not work with the built low voltage sensor. Previous winch was a 4k viper. It was borderline for power.

Man the club store sure is proud of this model in particular.

I found that out, too. I bought the VRX to get the wireless remote.

Warn said the Axon has no solenoid access since it's sealed up, but they are working on a new angle possibly like the the Zeon winches.

I have a Warn Axon 45s on the stock bumper. It fit like a glove.

I got the superwinch 4500lb with the KFI mount on my P1K-3, installed it before the weekend and used it a bunch. Was stuck a few times in fairly deep mud where i was high centered. Pulled me out no problem. I also used it for pulling some green logs that beavers had chopped down to get them onto the trail so i could drag them behind the sxs. The largest was about 30ft with 20" diameter . Worked great and didn't experience any issues with draw on the electrical system but i just made sure the sxs was running when i was using the winch. One thing i would recommend was not using the stock fair lead mounting location as it gave the cable a bad angle coming from the drum into the fairlead, which i think if you where stuck it would actually load down the front suspension and put more load on the winch rather than lift the front up. This was especially a concern for me as the areas i go riding is a lot of smaller trees in and around muskeg so its hard to find solid winch point a lot of the time. I ended up using the mounting plate that came with the winch and cut a hole in the stock bumper for the fairlead to fit. i only thing i had to buy extra was 4x m8 x 40 bolts which i would recommend if using the stock location as the bolts that came didn't seem to have the best thread engagement through all the mounting plates. If using the stock fairlead location you probably only need m8x35 as the plate is a 1/4".

I went with super atv black ops with synthetic. Easy install. Was not worried about top mount so I used their mount.

I went with the 6k lb black ops winch with the winching mounting plate all from super atv. The winch mounting plate
Put a horrible angle from the drum to the fairlead so i went with the emp mount that others have suggested from this forum that should be here tomorrow. Should have looked here first.
