mines bolted right to the bottom three bolts for the hitch, I figured that would be a real strong place, maybe I was wrong, I didnt' use any U bolts.

 

no doubt a strong mount, but I need to use my trailer hitch too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

i've got a two inch receiver that i ordered the other day, should be here this coming week, i'm going to work that into the mounting plate that I made as well. not sure if i'll ever use it, but just in case it will be there ready.

 

I been tossing around the idea of having a rear winch, seems if I'm gonna get stuck somewhere then I usually end up backing out anyways lol...

people see me go in and get stuck then for some reason they refuse to follow! haha


Auctually, I was concidering it for those sport bike guys that go riding with me. I would go to the "top" and winch them up or whatever, might save me from having to turn around?


It might be good for logging though too, hmm I guess I might put it to use sometimes.

 

Some rear winches and receivers I have made.

A rear winch is very handy sometimes. There are times you don't want to go deeper into wherever it is you shouldn't have gone. You want back out!
Then there are times you want to snub the bike down a steep hill.

Or times you just want to fool around. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Trick

 

Just ordered a reciever for the front, already have one on the back, so I can move winch to either end.
