Can anyone with the badlands 3500 winch post a picture of your winch and mount taken from above? I have a new P520, that I am thinking of mounting a winch to. I have built a custom multipurpose front bumper and am not sure if the winch will fit where it is mounted. Thank you

I started with a Badlands 3500 and have upgraded to the 5000. The 3500 has a gap at the edge of the spool that often let the rope get caught on the side of the spool. The 5000 seems to have less of a gap and I haven’t had the rope get caught yet. IMO the small difference in price it’s worth getting the 5000, and it fits on the same kfi mount that the 3500 was on.

Any photos of the bumper?

Well I bought the badlands 3500 after using the winch on my dad's P500 about 10 times when we were playing in the snow. Got it mounted last weekend, havent wire md it yet. Built my own mount using the mounting plate that comes with it and some 3"x1/4 flat bar. The bumper hinges down flat in front of the machine for packing game out.
