Figured someone may want to see it installed. My dealer actually gave me both mounts. This might be useful because you can move it from front to back but it leaves it sticking out.

Lol. Just changing the winch would be easy now. The wires are hooked up and ran already. Now maybe windshield and some lights

Winch should be mounted as low to the ground as possible. Mounted up high causes the vehicle to be pulled down into the ground.

X2 on the winch location. Most that run in the deep stuff want it higher so it's easier to find the rope/cable but it's not pulling at a good angle when it's higher.
Guy's wanting LEDS check ebay I found some good hd lights for a fraction of what others have paid and they work great. Pics of the fronts and rears I've installed. I've had them for 2 years without any problems.

winch mounts

That Commander is bada$$! I really like that thing. If Yamaha comes out with something similar to the Commander my Viking will be up for sale.

Thanks Brennan it's take'n me time to get it we're I wanted it. It'll be the same when I purchase my next machine the Viking. It will take time and money but it 's all worth it when all said and done.
