New 2013 HDI setup

There is a kit to keep the back end from sagging,rear fender support kit #806-256

Does anyone have a pic of this?

Foxvalley--thanks for the info!

[foxvalley]

OK--makes sense. I think adding that on after the fact would take much more skill than I've got since mine doesn't have the frame running around the back. Sounds like Argo added a very nice and very sensible upgrade to the newest machine. Thanks!

No, I don't think this can be ordered as a kit, but I will double check. The frame extentions go up and attach to 1" square stock that run around the back and sides of the unit,not sure how far it goes up towards the front. This really shores up the back of the unit nicely.

Foxvalley, do you know if the rear frame extension is available as an add-on kit? My 2012 has brackets at the rear where the frame extension is attached on yours...I had wondered what they were for?! Does it attach to the body anywhere, or just bolt onto the rear of the frame and fit up underneath the bumper?

Here is a pic of the powerline winch, note the cool argos for engage/disengage

[Obsessed]

Several years back we were having several issues with the factory specified super winches, so we went out and sourced what we thought was a better winch with a much better warranty...the more we used this winch the more we liked it but as usual we found details we thought could be improved...so we made a commitment to have large quantities built for us and to our unique specifications and began to private label the brand of winches "power line" and "power line pro". ...we used to have to build a custom adapter plate to mount a 4bolt winch to the factory style 2bolt super winch pattern...about 2 years later the factory begin making it very easy on us by using a nearly identical private branded "warn" winch so now nearly all parts are identical with the factory setup, but the warranty on the powerline winch is 2 years as apposed to 6 months or a year...a few of the most noticeable improvements are synthetic gear lube, improved waterproofing of the motor and drive for our applications, stainless steel hardware, lower amperage and higher effeciancy drives, correct length cables and proper sized cable ends, better paint finish, and much more durable decals... We also started to see an interest in a very long cable option so we decided that we could improve on the normal 45 ft reach of most winches by about double so we took a wide spool version of our 4,000lbs winch with the 65' steel cable and we wound up a 100' of red colored amsteel synthetic on it and it just fits...we also make a custom adapter plate to be used with our wide spool winches and factory type fog lights, which relocates the fog lamps outward from center far enough to fit the bigger winch in between them...some guys also like the option of the bigger LED lights mounted in this new location... This year you will start to notice that the new XTI is now offering a nearly identical version of our wide spool winch and are using the standard 65' of 5/16" steel cable...

Hope this helps

I will see if Tim can't chime in hear,but this might be made just for adair,anyway, I have had one of these on my last unit,and also on my new one,and they are awesome. Very quiet,large knob on the end to freespool or engage, and have worked flawlessly so far. The coolest thing about this winch is it has a pics of an 8x8 argo for the freespool or engage knob,not a stinkin...........cough, cough, .........4 wheeler. Tim thought of everything.

I have tried to find info on the powerline winch and can't? Why is this? Anyone know anything about these winches?

[Buzz]

I like the idea of having 100' on your spool to start with

[foxvalley]

Got any links for that longspool winch?

adairargosales - Home 4000lb powerline pro longspool winch.It just holds 100' of synthetic cable. If I remember correctly,this winch has the same guts as the warn winch,just ain't paying for the name.Also,Std. spool 4500lbs.

[brebett]

Thank you, didn't think of that. Simple

[foxvalley]

First, PVC cleaner,then PVC cement, the same way you would glue PVC drain pipe together.
