Hello?

 

[vtecvfr]

Hi:

Thinking about replacing the winch cable on my XT with synthetic....couple of questions hoping someone may answer:

1. Do I need to buy anything else other than the cable? spool, fairlead etc? My winch that came on the XT has been used a couple of times but thats it.

2. How long does it take to replace the steel with synthetic? Some have said its 10-15 mins, others have said 1 - 1.5 hours and that is was a pain....drilling out holes? replacing bolts etc?? Can someone confirm the real process to replace to synthetic on a commander xt?


Thank you very much!

-Jason

It happens.
That job is very tough on steel or rope.
Typically digging dirt right into the strands, assuming your wrapping the root ball with the cable.

 

[ghettocowboy]

Yeah i alrdy had a kink in it so it wasnt a suprise lol
Ill be calling you in the morning to order a new synthetic cable setup

Ok guys. Removed my stock fairlead and spooled on all my synthetic rope.

Drilled the holes in the custom splice fairlead a little bigger to accomodate the stock allen bolts.

My question is.....How the heck can you get the nuts on the inside of the allen bolts with the custom splice fairlead?

The slot in the customsplice fairlead is not real big. Hard to work with. I see no other way to get a wrench on the inside of the fairlead to tighten those nuts....

Any pointers or tips would be appreciated....

Whats the Manufacture date of your machine?
Can you send a pic of what your bolt setup is?
There has been some variance on how Can Am put the Roller Fairleads on.

Thanks for the reply. It is a 2012 800 XT.

I am not sure of exact manufacture date. I will have a look and see if I can get a picture as well. What I am trying to get a picture of?

What Bolts did they use?
Did you figure it out?
on other models we have done it was easiest to remove the front plastic.
Allen head bolts should have the head facing forward and you should be able to get a Box End Wrench on the nut, and tighten down the Allen from the front.

5/16" winch cable

Well I worn out my first 1/4" Am Steel Winch cable so this time I went back with a 5/16" Am Steel cable with a crush proof ring and one heavy duty hook. The only thing was that I had to cut 10' off the cable length to get it to fit on the spool. Oh I forgot to put the cable thru the custom slice fairlead so had to put the roller back on I didn't want to take the thing all the way apart again. We use our winch about 3 to 4 times or more every outting mostly pulling my buddies out and myself a time or two.
Here's a couple pics.
