See many photos with winches installed, and interested in this too.
First, on the John Deere configuration site it shows the WARN Pro-vantage winches, which I'm sure is a good winch, but compared to other comparative sized winches, they are very pricey. I'm not really planning on using the winch a great deal(who does right?), but even just changing to a WARN Vantage winch of comparable capacity from a different supplier is about 1/2 the cost!
So, the question is, on the John Deere configuration site, it shows a 'Winch Bumper Mounting Kit', for about $188. Do you need this mounting kit?
In the space where the winches are mounted, there are already mounting holes, do these work? Why do you need the kit? What else do you need to mount a winch to a 825i Gator?
Thanks.
