Hope this helps.I mounted mine facing up and down.Fit perfect. My winch is a elcheapo but works well and has not failed yet.Need to fabricate a fairlead for it.
I bought a flat steel plate from home depo. Took some U bolts put around the frame,marked the holes,drilled em out attached the plate after marking and drilling holes for the winch. put on winch. Havnt had any probs with the plate moving or the frame bending.let me know if you guys want me to...
Here is my 02 wolvy.Plan on upgrading the pipe,filter,clutch,tires & rims,and some light motor mods. Current mods include winch,warn 424,handle bars, handle bar mounted lights and gun racks,hand gaurds,gun boot mount.
