Bought for my side by side RTV x1100c. It weighs 2400lb and handles it fine. Good winch

I had some issues installing this winch but they were due to the vehicle, not the winch.I installed this Warn VRX 45 winch on a 2023 Kawasaki Mule Trans 4010. It fit behind the front bumper with room to spare. The winch is nicely finished and seems to be very well built. The supplied accessories and hardware are all top quality. The wires were more than long enough to be routed in a way that kept them from being seen and/or damaged. The installation instructions were clear and easy to read and understand.I didn't mount the dash-mounted rocker switch but I did install the wired remote plug in the dash. It's really tight under the Mule dash and contorting myself to get under there was a real issue. But I was finally able to find the ignition wire for a proper electrical connection.Once everything was installed I checked the function on the winch and remote. Worked just like it should. I like the easy turn dial on the winch that allows the cable to be pulled out to length. Another simple turn and you're ready to winch. The remote wire is long enough to easily control the winch from the front of the vehicle and remain a safe distance a way in case of cable failure.If I had a complaint it would be that this winch isn't going to win any speed contests. Winching under load is slow. Really slow. But, I knew that going in and it's about what I expected so I'm not gonna mark it down for that. Aside from that this winch performs quite well. It easily pulled the Mule out of a stream bed on my property that's very steep and about 40' long. It never reached it's duty cycle shutoff while doing that. Hardly a torture test but it is a real life test that's probably representative of the type of use this winch will generally see.I'm very happy with this Warn winch.

I installed this winch myself and saved quite a bit of money. It was pretty straight forward. I looked at other winches in all price ranges and this winch is much better quality.

Installed on my Suzuki Samurai. Put the handlebar switch in the dash with a separate on/off switch. Hand controller mounted outside. Gives the option of operating while inside the vehicle without the hand control cable through the window. Pulled out of the snow 5 times the first day. Great winch if you don't want the extreme weight of a full size winch

Had multiple install issues, but Warn customer service was quite responsive.1) Fairlead mounting plate. Purchased the specific Warn mounting hardware for my ATV. Base plate went in perfectly. Mounted fairlead to fairlead mount (included with base plate) and then attempted to mount winch and fairlead mount to base plate. Nope. The mounting bolts for the fairlead caused the mount holds to be 1/4" off. Maybe this was designed for something other than this particular winch. In any event, I had to take an hour to re-drill the fairlead mount plate. Customer service told me that Warn is moving more to single-mounting plates, but this might be an issue with the handful of ATVs that require separate fairlead plates.2) Winch mounting bolts. Way too short. First one I torqued down stripped out the 1/4-3/8" of the mounting hole where it had contact. Fortunately, enough thread left for a longer bolt, which I then had to run to the hardware store and buy. The explanation here, again, was the double plate mounting system. For a single plate, the bolt would have been fine. So, if you're mounting with a double plate, do yourself a favor and measure through the lock washer, mounting plates, and into the winch to see how long your bolt actually *should* be, and go buy one. Make sure you get the hardened stainless bolt that matches the included ones, except for length.3) Wiring. Too short! And too long! As another commenter observed, the winch wiring that goes from winch to contactor -- yellow and blue -- plays out a foot shy of any possible mounting location even with, or aft of, the battery compartment. (And mine is a medium size ATV, not a monster-ATV.) So, customer service was extremely helpful here. They asked the measurement I needed and offered a set of blue/yellows just a slight bit longer, shipped no charge.Bottom line: Still hoping this winch will be exceptionally good, given the trouble I've had so far. I will say Warn customer service was top-notch! The explanations were explanations, not excuses, and they did what was needed to fix the problem. Once connected up, I will adjust the rating based on how everything works.Post-install update: Warn's promised cables arrived, just the right length, and installed fine. I bought a heavy duty wire cutter and crimper set, and set of end caps, and custom cut my over-long wires to fit perfectly. Then my son helped me unwind/wind the cable correctly. Winch is extremely quiet, and everything worked correctly.

Mounted on a 2022 Suzuki KingQuad 750. Easy to install. Only thing is cables should be swapped. Ones to battery are long and ones to solenoid are too short. Or vice versa. Can’t remember but all are same guage. So just swapped which goes to which. Pulled a 300 lb mule deer out of a steep canyon with ease. That alone was worth it for me.

Warn winches are renowned. I had a Chinese winch on the headache rack of the truck. It failed after 3 pulls... what a fn waste. So bit the bullet and got the Warn VRX2500. It wouldn't run when I mocked it up using the Chinese wire from the battery. So... I bought 15 feet of 6 guage braided marine-grade wire. The best. Winch pulls like a champ. Amazing it would work with the just-abit thinner wire.
