2001 Yamaha Bear Tracker Custom Winch Mount

[@kkrankie]

Nice job- this is the exact ATV and winch I am going to mount on my son’s Beartracker...

Very Good video Years later and this video is still helping people. I'm looking to make a mount for my timberwolf 250 and this should work.

Thanks Rich! I'm glad this video helped. Good luck with your mount.

In response to Yamaha Wolverine's question about where to mount the solenoid, pause the video at 10:23, this will show a clear shot of the location where the solenoid is mounted. Two self-tapping screws were used to mount it to the frame. This location is low on the bike so if you are concerned about going through water and it getting wet, this may not be the best location. Otherwise, it worked out great.

[@thesmilingpirate6236]

Yes. The template was for a 2003. I used it on a 2001.

Any problem with the tires rubbing at full lock?

[@thesmilingpirate6236]

No problem at all with the tires rubbing at full lock. There is enough clearance.
