Hi all, my pops got this quad used a long time ago. It has a winch. I hooked up a plow and noticed that the lever to adjust the plow angle hits the winch mount when I raise it. I googled and found out that it seems this quad was not designed to have a winch. If you look at this pic it looks like the PO made a home-made mount and welded it on.

Any options besides this? I was thinking maybe something to mount the winch on the rack. I found this which says it fits but it has no details like what it mounts to: Eagle Plow® - ATV Winch Mount

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

I had a '98 with a winch mounted behind the grill, but everything was custom; there was nothing factory/aftermarket available.
Cut the lever and move it to a different position.

I'd think the U-bolts would mount on the rack's tubing. I'd even look if there was enough place to mount it "inside" for a cleaner look by getting rid of the grill.

Ok, I'll give that a try, thanks!
