Thank god I finally found a great teacher who explains stuff. THANK YOU!

Really appreciate how you take the time to explain and show the small steps too. Thanks!

Winch installed and works great. Your instructions completely cleared up my installation questions. The instructions that came with the winch were horrible. Mounted the winch after work one night, and ran the electrical the next night after work. I used your electrical box idea to house the circuit breakers, nice install. All that I have left to do now that I know it's all working is to get some connectors and shorten up all the cable/wires. Thanks for an excellent instructional video.

D-Ray is D-man. Thanks for all the help. Great Idea with electrical box.

Best vid on install I've seen , explained brilliantly. Thanks .

This is the best video I have seen. I am not a shop genius. This is an intimidating task for me, personally.

Me too brother.

I just bought a ZXR5000 winch to install on my 2019 low hours Gator that I just got. This video was the most helpful, by far, of all the ones that I watched. Looking forward to completing my install, and hoping that it is as clean as this!

Great video,awesome to see the pride you put into your work and videos,keep up the great work

Thanks so much for this video. I'm usually pretty good about getting things put together. This video kept me from making mistakes on the wiring. Thanks again for your video. A great help!!!

The skills this man has when it comes to working on motorcycles, ATV's and Side-by-Sides blows my mind! D-Ray, you the man, my friend!!!!!!!! :)

Thanks! I do appreciate it!

From all the videos I've watched this was definitely the most helpful, thank you!

I am very impressed with your professionalism. You don't find that everyday.

The Harbor Freight 3500lb is amazing for the price. Super smooth winch for cheap Chinese. I think a tool box tour would be awesome. Im a geek about tools.

Man you explain that better showed it better than people on TV if you ain't on TV you should be on TV you save me a lot of time thanks for the video from Paul in Missouri

Great video I wired mines up by watching this video part 1 and 2 awesome job

Professional, knowledgeable and you actually guide the viewers through every step. Excellent 10/10

Really clean work. Love it man!

lovely video, thank you! I took this thing out of the box and was like DAMN way more wires than I was expecting.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Very helpful

It's great to see something new, looking forward to part two. I like the electrical box idea to hide the fuses/breakers.

Thanks Jeff, I appreciate you brother!

very clean install! Recommend you put a link to the next video at the end of this video or in the description.

11:11 if you're not soldering your lugs, a dollop of dielectric grease on cable ends before heat shrink keeps the copper clean

That is the cleanest winch install that i have ever seen. Excellent job

Wow ! Its been a while since last videos . Being busy is good . More videos please if ya can. 👍

Wow you're the only one that shows how these wires go on the solenoid

Answered my question: what the hell do I do with all this bare metal (breaker) on the positive wire?! I can see where that setup outta the box could get somebody into some trouble. Usually harbor freight does better in the CYA department on their products and instructions. Great video, thanks!

Awsome vid! You should do a tool box tour and show us all your specialty tool

Thanks, sounds like a good video project! ;)

I put this same winch on my kubota x900....the battery is under the dump bed....cables barely reach the battery...its a sloppy mess of a job but winch works good so far

Were all the parts shown included in the winch kit? How well do those HF winches hold up?

I realize this is years after you posted it. I hope you are going to get this and will respond. I would like to put this setup on my 2008 Rhino 700. I am not a mechanic but think after viewing your video, I will give it a try. What brand of winch and mounting plate would you suggest I buy? Thank you.

nicee videos...

Hey D-Ray, could you tell me what brand wire crimps those are, look like nice ones? Thank You.

je suis Français et j ai très bien compris, merci beaucoup

Good Video , I was wondering where my red wire went as got my tractor back I sold 2 years back free , as it was on a junk truck to the scrap! and the 3 wires broke up in side the switch . Thanks

AWESOME! Now all I need is a wench to go with my winch.

Hey Mr. Arkansas maguiver, Lol. Do I need to get a separate mount to mount onto the garage wall?

I was just wondering if I need mine winch hooked up to a Solenoid cause I just have it hooked up to the battery the winch is a champion 3000 lb I planning on adding a wireless remote up to the winch plzz help it’s a 2001 big bear 400 4x4

Good afternoon D ray. Have a massimo 500 have serious electric issue. How long labor hours do you think and how hard to rewire with new harness

nice idea on the electrical box,never saw black ones before though

thanks for atc200snfo sent valves and such etc.my last name is Smith also lol

so are you doing more vids now?

Can you perchance a wireless controller for the 3500 and up.

how do you like that winch?

Part 2?

Would have been better if you would have shown disassembly of the front end of UTV/ATV for those who have never done that

Attaching winch

why do you need a solenoid, why cant you just run a + and - wire from battery to the on off switch for the winch and then run a + and - wire from the switch to the winch.

@jasonmorehouse3756

the switch won't handle the high amprage so you use a soloniod which operates on low current on the switch side and allows the others side to still handle the high current. no melted switch this way

how about if you use a remote setup?

Should've made the battery + connection LAST not FIRST

Lots of common sense tips

im mounting mine to the top of a wild boar bumper do i need a special mount or can it be mounted right to the bumper . I ordered a superAtv 4500 black ops ,comes with pretty much everything you show here would the install process be pretty much the same
