Yep, you will need one that matches your year model ATV. But the winch works and looks great

I neded one for my 2013. but the cables for it are run from the battery to the front.

Yup you will need a mount kit no matter what machine you have. Money we'll spend, they make the winch mount job a breeze.

NO! The extension is rated for less than your winch, and the extension would increase the side loading WAAAAY too much.

I used this bracket on my 2012 Sportsman 500 HO and it went on there perfect. So that part I can tell you. I used it with a model LT3000ATV Superwinch. And that went on there perfectly too. I can't help you with the 3500 part, but if SW says it fits that winch too then you should be good to go. I wasn't crazy about dropping another $70 bucks into this project for the mount, but I'm really glad now that I did.

Mine is mounted on an 07 Honda Foreman. I dont see any reason why this winch wouldnt fit, as long as you have the right mounting plate. Hope this helps!

This is the blade only. You will also need a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket will determine whether you need a winch

This winch has standard mounting holes and should fit any manufacturer's winch mount.

Yes, mine is installed on a Polaris RZR (UTV) with a beefy front bumper. It sits up high out front, not under the front end. However, I think it would fit under the front end as well. I used to have a Polaris Ranger with a winch. This Superwinch would have fit it just fine. I really like this winch. Easy to install and use.

I would suggest contacting warn directly. I'm sure the winch will work but you have to buy the warn mounting bracket for the Polaris. I just used my winch two weeks ago on my honda foreman to pull out a pick-up truck stuck in sand. I am amazed at what a warn winch will do.

this removable receiver will fit 5000 on up to 15000 winch with out any problem as long as its a warn winch I currently have a 12000 in mine and the only thing I had a problem with was the installation of the winch to the receiver its a tight fit and you still can use the handles to move it around,, just remember the bigger the winch the les space you have on the outside dimensions

No, it's just the mount and hardware. You'll have to use the fairlead that comes with the winch.

The previous answer is correct. The mounting plate is the key. Winch is excellent.

I was going to mount mine on a Grizzly but my winch was in the way. Plus, you would need an additional support bracket because my rack wasn't sturdy enough. I also had to brace the back bracket with some welded pieces.

Most winches have a 4.5x10" mounting holes on bottom. It's universal for most all winches. The winch should fit.

I don't know if it will fit a Polaris 500. I would check the Swisher internet site. I checked there before I purchased to see if it would fit my Honda Rancher 420.

The winch plate has an integrated mount for the fairlead. I was very happy with my purchase. I don't have any experience with other manufacturer's winch plates but this one served it's purpose and the powder coat finish was decent too. I will post pictures of mine shortly

If you can get the right hitch attachment for your Polaris you could pull it with that no problem at all. Just be careful to watch the speed to make sure the spikes have enough time to penetrate the ground.
