Pt.2 How To Install A Winch On Your ATV/UTV At D-Ray's Shop 

As a person that has done installs and wiring of lighting and emergency equipment on police and fire vehicles for 30+ years I know a good install when I see it. This is superb. You can also tell what kind of work a professional does by his shop. Your's sir is superb!! Keep up the good work.

Best video ever seen about wiring a winch

I’m a shop teacher for 30 years. This is maybe the BEST “how to” video I’ve ever seen. Definitely the best in all of you-tube. I will check out all your stuff now, but at least I know all the in and outs of my winch install. Thanks

I don’t normally comment on things like this but you did such a good job explaining things without a lot of blah blah blah me me me I just had to! Your editing was as good as your workmanship. And finally somebody with some descent music! Thank you!

*I have watched a lot of other videos for winch install before I found this one.. by far the best out there and what an awesome install sir! Neat, clean and setup perfectly for a long life of the wires and other components. Thank you so very much for a detailed video without all the un-needed BS!*

This Man Takes Pride In His Work. Super Clean Install, Keep Up The Great Work!

Thank you for saving me a couple hundred bucks. I was going to pay for my instal but these instructional videos have given me the confidence to proceed with the install myself. Well done Sir.

Top shelf install, paying attention to detail is what is all about, thanks for posting the video!

Great video! I love that you've edited out the little in between moments and parts that are easily skipped. And don't get me started on how clean your work is. Dammit! You set the bar for me, sir. I knew a German electrician who worked like you. So organized and clean. Excellent! Thank you for making the video!

Now this is how you do an install video. I just installed a winch on my ATV and didn't find many for informative and as user friendly as this was. Great job!

Thanks Ray! Nice to see a true professional who does quality work and with clear instructions.

I've not done alot of electrical stuff a tech when i was alot younger but watching this man videos has taught me how to some stuff . I love he put the remote into the grill and made it all look nice and factory.

It's nice to see pride in workmanship. Excellent work.

Great job! I am installing my old ATV KFI winch on my new Ranger 570, what I was looking for was where you mounted the receptacle for remote switch, but I got a lot more good info for the install. I am doing the wiring today and I am impressed with your attention to detail. Thanks again!

Very well made video with detailed instructions. Wish more people would take the time to go into the details as you did. Great job. Thank You.

Great video, love the way your dog keeps you company when you're working in the shop, Love it. Thank you for sharing the video.

Nice to see this old school attention to detail. It's getting to be a rarity nowadays. Good work, D-Ray.

Sweet. Nice to see someone take pride in their work! I love to give my money to these type of people and hate to do business with half asses.

Excellent work! Enjoyed it immensely. Never compromise quality work.

Excellent workmanship on the install. You can tell you love what you do.

Thanks! Exactly what I needed to get my winch installed. Incredibly professional video. Well done.

Awesome, clean install. I love to see when people take pride in their work and do a quality job. If I lived in Arkansas I'd hire you guys every time. Thanks for the vid. I just bought a champion 2000lb for my atv...need to figure a clean way to install on old 97 yamaha warrior 350

Hello D-Ray, all the way from Australia. I just wanted to say how great your channel is and the quality of your very informative video's. As a young man, I would always shadow my father in his garage when he was tinkering around. Despite being an OR nurse by profession, I like to give everything a go. Be it my 2005 Cat Skid Steer, 2013 Husqvarna ride on, 2013 Yamaha WaveRunner, 2013 Suzuki KingQuad or my car. With a little help with learned experience, pdf workshop manuals or RU-vid channels like yours, I no longer have to bother my father on those late nights I enviably find myself playing with my toys in my shed. Thanks for putting out these videos. Cheers Paul.

Cheers for creating this video it has help me a lot with installing my winch.

Thanks for taking the time to make this really good clear video. Makes me feel like I can do this too. Just bought a winch for my UTV. It will be a slightly different install but the basics will be the same. Will try to make it as professional as yours…wish me luck. Cheers, Sunjay

What a professional. Close enough ain't good enough for this guy. Outstanding work.

Making it work is one thing... Making it work and look neat and clean is another... Great job.....
