argo jim can you explain how you made your winch mount plate??
The older pic that was posted came in Phil and I removed it, all my plates are factory. If you look at the installation instructions of the conquest you'll get a good idea. If Kris sends you some measurements you and a welder should be able to recreate the plates.
My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
Joe Camel never does that.
Advice is free, it's the application that costs.
alright...kris send me some measurements if its ok with you.is there anyway possible i can just use a thick place mount it on the hoop and mount the winch to that?
The plate mounts to the upper and lower body and wraps around the hoop so you are not pulling on the body alone but also the frame.
Again, if you could buy a Conquest winch brace set you should be set.

ok ive made my decision... im going to either make an angle iron body band or no winch at all. this making pltes is just to difficult for me. so how hard it it to make a body band. and how do mount the winch to it.also would i still need the hoop once i get a body band to help support the winch or no?
The body band is going to be harder to build than the plates. There is a lot of cutting and welding to get the band to conform to the contours of the body. Plus, the body band will add a lot of weight to your machine. I would stick with making the plates only if I were you.
ok. oh man these plate are going to be the death of me. oh and i just got the engine put back in!
Curtis i just picked up an
i/C which i a
Have been leadbto believe is very similar to a magnum body shape this one has a winch hoop and plate mounted and no engine so i should be able get some fairly clear pictures/ measurments. I agree the body wrap/ rubrail :s alot of work but i cant imagine running without one in brush country maybe im going the wrong way but my argo goes over someprettybig trees if i cant steer around them
