Can-Am Defender & Defender MAX HD10 Winch-Ready Front Bumper, 1/8" Steel Plate, D-Ring Shackle Tabs, Cube Light Cutouts, Optional 4,500 or 6,000 lb Winch

The nose of a Can-Am Defender HD10 takes the first hit from brush, posts and the occasional cow that won't move, and the factory plastic doesn't hold up long. This winch-ready front bumper wraps the front end in steel plate and gives you a proper home for a winch, lights and recovery shackles, so the machine can protect itself and pull a buddy out of the mud.

Highlights

• 1/8" thick steel plate, full-coverage shape
• D-ring shackle tabs for recovery
• Pre-cut holes for recessed 3" LED cube lights
• Brackets for a 6" or 12" LED light bar
• Pre-fit for 2,500, 3,500, 4,500 and 6,000 lb Black Ops winches
• Winch bolt patterns: 3.0" x 4.87" (76 x 124 mm) and 3.0" x 6.6" (76 x 168 mm)
• Compact profile helps keep approach clearance
• UV-resistant wrinkle-black finish

Protection Where You Need It

The bumper's shape covers the front fascia and lights against brush, saplings and surprise obstacles in tight trails. The wrinkle-black coat resists rust and hides scuffs, and the compact design keeps the front of the machine from dragging on steep approaches.

Built Around Recovery

Two shackle tabs give you strong attachment points for straps and D-rings. With a winch mounted inside the bumper, the Defender can self-recover from a mud hole or drag a downed tree off the trail. The two common winch bolt patterns mean most compact UTV winches will bolt right in.

Add a Winch Now or Later

Choose the bumper by itself, or add a 4,500 lb or 6,000 lb winch in the option picker. The 6,000 lb winch is the better pick for a heavy MAX, a loaded bed or plowing. Each winch option adds to the bumper price.

Light Up the Trail

Recessed cube light cutouts and the included light bar brackets let you add serious forward lighting for night chores or late rides home.
