260 watt alternator. Should be plenty enough not to tax the system.Plus the one from Super Winch I saw would work on the lower out put 400 also.

Nope,no experience with any aftermarket ones,just the ones that came from Polaris.Looks like EZ-Steer is one of the popular ones.https://www.superatv.com/categories/powersteering
