A winch wont affect the Warriors power at all. I put one from harbor Freight tools on my Bayou. It was $39 for the winch and had everything you defintely need but the mounting plates. I added a roller a heavy duty 12v breaker and some relays so I could use a toggle switch instead of the big bulky controller it came with I had around $150 in it all said and done. If you wanted super cheap you could make your own mounting plates and use the controller it comes with and be around 50-60. If you were mudding and used the winch a lot I would get a higher quality unit but for just in case it worked real good.

if you want to add more horse power decrease the size of the rear sprocket and increase the size of the front sprocket.

or you could do the opposite because increasing the front and decreasing the back is going to gear you down which in turn gives you more torque and power but most likely all you have to do is change you front

i already have the 16 tooth front instead of the stock 13 nd it seems to be working well for me. My dad has a warrior with a 14 tooth and it rushes through first which i dont like the feel. Thnx tho

The stock shock was blown when I got the quad so Im not sure. The Raptor shock was cheaper than a Warrior shock. The Z400 shocks on the front required brackets but made it ride like a whole different quad.

THe yfz rear definitely won't fit and unless you cut and redrill the upper brackets the front shocks are going to be compressed and cause greater wear on your balljoints.
