(see "Warn 2500 Multi or 3.0Ci??" thread for background)

OK, I just got the winch in the mail, and the actual winch just BARELY fits into the opening in the bumper of the 600. The width of the 3.0 is a little more than a standard 2500lb winch, so there is only about 1/8-3/16" space on each side of the winch.

Unfortunately, the mounting kit that I ordered, according to the fit chart on the warn webpage (63799), is not designed to fit in the bumper opening. The mount is designed to fit below the bumper, right in front of the radiator. They even show pics on the

I've called my dealer, and he says that when they get the A2500 for a 600 or 700, the mount comes with the winch, in the box from warn. That means that the mount must come directly from warn, and isn't some custom made deal from Polaris.

Does anyone know the Warn part number for the mounting plate that fits within the bumper?

The part # for the Warn winch mount plate is 5245244-067. Then there is also a Fairlead Mount Plate for the Roller Fairlead. The part # is 5245931-067. I don't know what other parts you might need but I have the instructions from mine and I can get the numbers off of it.

 

patjaysam is right on the numbers. i just had the 2.5ci mounted on my 700 and the roller fairlead is one strong bracket. it fits well and looks mean!
good luck with yours hombre!

Hmmmmm, I talked to Warn customer service last night, and they gave me a Polaris part #2874099. Warn said that the mounting plate that fits in the bumper is a Polaris design that Warn makes for Polaris. But since Polaris designed it, only Polaris can sell it. I ordered the plate from my dealer, he said it would be here on 12/11.

Hopefully the part that I ordered up is correct, I seem to be creating a collection of mounting plates for winches! I have the original one off my 00 SP500, then the new one that I needed when I got the tube bumper, the wrong one for the 600, and another one for the 600 on the way. Anyone in the market for mounting plates??

Thanks for the info guys, I'll order up those part #'s if this Polaris one is incorrect.

Arcosanti,

Did you get the right mounting plate? I'm looking for the same plate for my SP600. I have the brush guard and want to mount the winch in the guard in the bumper. I have a 2500# Warn winch which should mount to any plate. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
