    X 1120 D Bed Mounted Winch Receiver

    Ohio, I do not. My winch came with a mounting plate, and I simply welded it to a receiver hitch purchased at local Harbor Freight. I do know that Harbor Freight carries universal winch mounting plates.

    X 1120 D Bed Mounted Winch Receiver

    BC, they are solid 1" bar stock, down into entire depth of bed and welded in place. If pulled from the front with enough weight, undoubtedly it would pull bed apart. Pulling towards rear of bed (the sides acting as additional support), while bed is tilted up, I can't see it buckling with...

    X 1120 D Bed Mounted Winch Receiver

    BC, It feels pretty sturdy and with roller fair leads, bed in tilt position with tailgate down, I don't foresee any snags. Once deer is winched upwards with bed tilted, tilting bed back into down position will take all of the weight off of winch bracket (which is pretty sturdy steel C-channel)...

    X 1120 D Bed Mounted Winch Receiver

    Finally got around to locating a winch mount to my bed. I have a Viper Max 5000 lb winch on mounting plate, welded to a hitch receiver bar and wired with a quick connect end. All of my winch wires are located under driver's seat, and will reach both front and rear hitch receivers. When winch is...

    Homemade Roof X-1120D

    Also, on bottom piece, the top and both side edges ware bent at a 45 inward to give it rigidity. I did apply rubber weather stripping to ROPS anywhere diamond plate would touch to eliminate vibration.

Im very fortunate to have a good friend that owns a RR Tank Car business and have access to...

    Homemade Roof X-1120D

    Being the cheapo that I am, I certainly wasn't gonna fork over $400 for a roof. Instead, I bought a 4x8 sheet of Diamond Plate for $135 and made my own. Now to get a strip of 1/4" coated polycarbonate cut to make a quick detach windshield.

    X 1120 D Mud Tire help.

    They are indeed 2+5. I was told by Orange Aftermarket that 27" tires should be fine on factory wheel offset. I opted to go with more offset wheels purely for looks.

    X 1120 D Mud Tire help.

    Went with 27" and it didn't change top speed at all. I don't even feel any loss of power.

    RTV-X hydraulic tank oil

    Thanks guys. I topped it off yesterday with Kubota SUDT and it was right at 2 quarts low. I had never checked tank under passenger seat until this this weekend. I had always just checked case located under bed. May just be in my head, but it feels like i have a slightly harder launch since...

    I did drive through some fields with tall seedy johnson and bahia grass. It did not appear to be dirty enough to cause blockage.

    Bighorn tires

    You should have no clearance issues on the X model running up to a 27" tire. I have 27" semi aggressive mud tires on my x 1120D, with shocks turned all the way up. No rubs whatsoever, even in sharp turns and bumpy terrain.

    X 1120 D Overheated

    This past Sunday, I was riding to check my trail cameras, and my overheat alarm sounded. I immediately killed engine, turned key to on position, and fan ran as it should. I let machine sit with fan running while I inspected all hoses, and fluid levels. I could not locate an issue other than...

    My X1120D with new wheels, tires, winch.

    I will be adding a reciever that attaches to angle iron that runs across back of roll cage, just high enough for bed to raise. There will also be small baskets on each side of winch mount to keep tools, etc.
