Every X3 that leaves the pavement should carry a way to get itself unstuck. This kit pairs the Viper MA11949 Maverick X3 mount plate with a Viper V3 4,500 lb standard spool winch. The same MA11949 mount is also the connection point for the Denali X3 plow mount, so this kit sets you up for winter work too.
Why It Works on an X3
- MA11949 is designed for the 2017-2025 Maverick X3 front end.
- Required connection point if you later add a Denali X3 snow plow.
- Compact V3 body fits the tight space behind the X3 bumper.
- Choose black, blue or red rope.
- Wireless remote for safer winching from outside the car.
Recovery Basics for X3 Owners
- Carry a tree strap, a soft shackle and gloves with the winch.
- Pull in a straight line when possible; angled pulls pile rope on one side of the drum.
- Keep the engine running while winching to protect the battery.
What to Know Before You Order
- MA11949 takes the standard 3 x 4-7/8 in. pattern, so this kit comes with the 4,500 lb V3 standard spool.
- If you plan on adding a Denali X3 plow, this is the winch mount the plow mount bolts to.
- Moto Alliance lists 2017-2025 for this plate; we will confirm 2026 fitment for you before shipping if you ask.
- The X3 front end is tight, and the V3 has recessed terminals that help it fit.
- Pick black rope for a stealthy look, or red or blue to match your X3 and make the line easy to see on a recovery.
