P1000 Winch for 2022 model

[highcountry71]

I’m supposed to be getting my 2022 P1000 this weekend and want to add a winch. I like what the Ready Winch says about the ease of installation but Ive also read that they don’t fit right with the 2022 models. I’d prefer to not have to cut relief into a new SxS as I’ve heard others say they did. Anyone have experience with adding this winch to a 2022 model and is the Viper I’m reading about on this forum an easy install

I would say any winch isn't an easy install but not hard. I would recommend the viper. Any In the club store for that matter.

Cool your getting you rig this weekend. Exciting!
Don't forget post lots of pics or...... 😂

I put the 6K Viper2 wide spool (from the club store) on my 22. The winch itself was pretty easy, the Viper mount was a bit of a pain. Just a really tight fit. I ended up stripping one of the u bolts but got it on with some spare hardware I had laying around. All and all I'm happy with it. Clean looking, wireless remote and dash switch.

I haven’t had a chance to look at them much so maybe you can help. What is the benefit to to wide spool and if you used a standard spool do you think it would have mounted up easier? Other than the winch did you have to get brackets or anything?

Wide spool gives you room for more line. 60' for this model. I dont think the winch size mattered at all. It was the mounting plate (separate item) that was a tight fit.

Ease of installation is directly related to your mechanical abilities.
I would say it is a 5/10 for the average DIY'er.
It might bump up a bit if you encounter stripped or cross threaded hardware. Most time consuming process tends to be hiding the wires and making it appear neat and tidy. Do not be scared to cut down the leads from the contactor to the winch.

I got the new HF Badlands Apex 5500 long drum winch for Fathers Day. I bought the Warn winch mount and it mounted up perfectly. Couldn’t be happier

Got the unit yesterday. Ran fine initially but for some reason now won’t run more than 38 mph. Posted it in another thread. Frustrating.

It’s fastened.

 

[Remington]

It’s fastened.

Try the delete plug from the club store. Might have an issue with the switch? its cheep and easy. Thats what I would do anyway. Things a pita.

Mine only runs 9-10 mph with seat belt off. I’m assuming it’s in High and shifting through all 6 gears?

Not the seat belt. Doesn’t reach enough rpm’s to get to 6th gear in automatic. Will if I manually shift.

I definitely wouldn't buy a winch from a club store! These machines are heavy and large the only thing standing between you and getting out of a situation is a good winch sometimes.. I would get a Warn or Viper (previous person said that too). They might all look the same but it's about the quality of the electrical components that can determine whether your machine battery gets fried or not during the pull
