I would like to add a winch to my RTV900,but would liketo be able to mountthe winch front or back as needed.Does anyone make a rear winchmount for the RTV ?</P>

I don't think so, but you could always get a front mount, weld it securly on heavy duty square tubing, andat your choice , go to the back or the front of your unit, and pin it off, you would have to run the same wire harness both ways.May I ask, why do you want one in the back of your RTV ? I know a man that fixed up something on his Jeep that way, it worked fine, but he said it wasn't worth the trouble. I would imagine, what ever floats your boat >>>>>>>>>>>>>

Check with Hunterworks. www.hunterworks.com
I believe they had them but have discontinued RTV accessories. If they don't have any left, they may be able to tell you who does have them. I liked theirs since they provided all the wiring harness stuff as well.

For just the mounting (no wiring), there's lots of places that sell them.

A google search for "rtv winch multi-mount" will provide a list of companies that have them.

Thanks everyone for the quick response. I haven't had the RTV very long not sure how I'm going to like it for my situation.I'll be using it this winter tofeed livestock I question how well it will do in snow and mud, I've had to be pulled out a few times already.That's what get me thinking about a winch.</P>


Two Guns sometimes it easier to back out of a bad spot instead of going thru it.</P>

Sounds to me like you may need different tires... I had the worksite tires and got stuck frequently. I changed to a more aggressive tire and haven't gotten stuck since. We have several threads on the site that discuss various tires based on ground conditions.
 
Yep ! Sounds like you need more aggressive tires for sure. I was running the Kubota ATV's, and could still see where I would get stuck this winter. So I purchased the ITP 589's >>>> They are really aggressive tires, now, you wouldn't want to play around in a manicured front lawn. But if your RTV stays in the pasture, woods, dirt all the time. The 589's will do the trick. The Bighorn tires are also a great tire, and more forgiving in the grass >>>>>> </P>


I have posted a pic of the ITP 589 M/S</P>
