Winch mounting plate for kazuma
#1
Recently bought a 2000lb badlands winch from harbor freight. I want to mount this on my kazuma but can't find any place that carries winch mounts for my atv or online. Please help. I'm not sure what model kazuma I have so here is a pic

I added a winch to my Hensim 150cc quad. There were no adapter plates available. I had to weld up my own mounting scheme which included some fairly extensive mods to the front end frame and front end brush guards. I suspect you might need to do the same.

I just used ordinary rectangular 1/8" wall steel tubing. I extended the main frame out a ways with a pair of 1' x 2" arms, added some diagonal bracing, and welded a plate on that to mount the winch.
I'm not an expert welder. I can do OK on horizontal welds, so to weld all the way around I removed the gas tank, drained the carburetor, took off the plastic and flipped the quad upside down or on its side as required so that the place I needed to weld was horizontal. I did not take out the battery which was a mistake. It drips acid when upside down which makes a mess. A little oil drips too, but that's easier to clean up. Also be sure to disconnect any electronics modules containing semiconductors like the CDI and regulator before welding.
I can take pictures if you want, but it will have to wait for the weekend. It's dark when I get home from work, and I'm not a morning person
