Aluminum Products Front Hook Holster, Skit-Guards, Mounting Plate, and Full Belly Skid Plate. These plates do the trick. They are worth the money and they look good too. The CV boot guards needed a little modifing because of certain reasons ( the type of riding I do) but other than that they were really easy to put in. The hook holster looks really good. It has a spot right were you can put the rooler fairlead. We reinforced the back side of it for extra stength but you dont have to. We really liked the mounting plate. It is bigger than the WARN one and it works so much better. We had to drill new holes in the mounting plate because of the triangle peice in reinforcing your skid plate was a little big but it was no big deal. If you want skid plates and you want reliable ones, I would strongly recommend Aluminum Products Skid Plates. www.aluminumproducts.com

Got the ATV silencer in the mail today...... Took me less then one minute to install. Makes a HUGE difference, It's got to be at least cut in half.... Very happy with it.... AND it looks great too. Anybody wants a picture, send an email address.

Product: Ramsey 2,500 Winch w/ Wireless Remote Purchased this product to install on my Bayou 220 because to help me when riding by myself getting stuck, and for getting me out of the Black Mud holes.
Pros: Truthfully cannot say enough good about it. This is a truely awesome winch. The biggest pro is power. I've used this to pull me out of black mud, deep water holes, have even used it to pull broke limbs out of trees and it has never maxed out or over heated. The winch came with a roller fairlead as well. It's black look keeps it noticeable but not overly bright, so it contrasts good with the underside of the quad and the black frame. It is also (I believe) the only 2,500 rated winch that comes with a LIFETIME GUARENTEE. This was a major plus. The amp draw is very low. I can operate this thing for very long times and the quad still cranks right up. The wireless remote is exactly what it's referred to: an option. I don't exactly see huge benefits of this, I actually suggest getting the non-wireless model. It does give me the ability to stand away from the quad or out of the mudhole to winch but this is not that often, because I'm usually still on the quad while winching. The product (even thought it does come with a wireless remote) does also include a small toggle switch that you can use instead.
Cons: The winch picture will absolutely fool you! The winch did not come with a fairlead mounting plate, so when we got it, we had no way to mount the roller fairlead (had to fabricate a custom one). I recommend being sure that the winch mount you order with this has a place to mount a fairlead. Because of the wireless remote option, the antenna part of the wireless remote is two thin copper strips that have "sticky" on the back sides. These are placed on the ATV and cannot be removed as far as I know without damage. This causes the problem to arise that now I cannot transfer this winch over to another quad and still be able to use the wirless remote. Installation is also more difficult, you have to locate a place for a black box about 2"x2" (used for a certain part of the wireless system) somewhere on the quad and keep it unobvious. The included backup toggle switch is small, and isn't meant to be mounted, but rather placed in the plastic, which requires you to cut a hole in the plastics to install the toggle switch (big negative for me!)
Overview: Very Very highly reccomend this winch to anyone! Very good price, lifetime warranty, etc. Have had not the 1st problem and this thing is strong! I do reccommend that unless you feel it's completely necessary, stick with the non-wireless setup and save yourself money and installation time (I wish I had). Great product.
