I have a new polaris trail premium coming in about a month from now so I have been looking on Polaris parts and accessories. One of the things I have seen is that many of the prices are less expensive than the oem equivalent.
The question I have is are there any good third party winches or should I stick with a oem one. I would rather spend 200 for a winch than 500 for a oem one if possible.

 

Buy a winch from KFI. American made and very good winches. Their prices are as fair as you will find. Most will come with the proper mounting bracket for your machine and tge handle bar thumb switch.

 

Any winch you do buy will be more than 200 dollars unless you buy a Harbor Frieght special then you will just be buying another one anyway.
