I recently bought a 2010 Sprtsmn 850 and the dealer told me it was prewired for a winch, I can't find anything in the owner's manual and I'm looking to purchase a winch. What will work with factory wiring?

 

Sportsman XP Polaris 3500 LB Winch Part #2877820 Would be the easiest, everything you need and easy install with the factory pre-wiring.

 

Look for a blue and a yellow cable near where the winch mounts. THATS IT.

 

Any whinch will work pre wired means that there is 8 guqge wire ran from the batt to the front of the qtv and there is a power outlet for the switch to plug into under the pod.

 

Thank Y'all for the info

 

Any winch will work but if you try to put just any solenoid in the spot were it goes the prewiring will have to be altered. I put a polaris warn winch on one of mine, and it went flawlessly. Then i thought i would upgrade to a RT2500 big mistake i had to cut all my tie straps on the original harness and reroute the cable around the fuel tank to fit on the solenoid. GO with Polaris Warn winches save the headache, and same power.
