The 2009-2017 full-size Ranger 800 era is still the backbone of a lot of farms and hunting camps, and most of them never got a winch from the factory. This kit pairs the Viper MA11900 full-size Ranger mount plate with a Viper V3 winch, so the plate, winch, rope and controls all arrive together. The plate takes both bolt patterns, so you can pick the 4,500 lb standard spool or the 6,000 lb wide spool.
Built for the Full-Size Ranger 800 Era
- MA11900 plate scanned and laser cut by Moto Alliance to fit the full-size Ranger 500, 700, 800, 800 Crew, 800 6x6 and Ranger HD in the years listed below.
- Accepts the standard (3 x 4-7/8 in.) and wide (3 x 6.67 in.) 4-bolt patterns, so either V3 bolts straight on.
- Black industrial powder coat to hold up to mud, manure and road salt.
- Mounting hardware and step-by-step instructions are included with the plate.
- Viper V3 runs a sealed motor and 3-stage planetary gears, with an automatic brake that holds 100% of the load.
4,500 or 6,000 lb?
- V3 4,500 standard spool: lighter and shorter, with 40 ft of rope. Plenty for self-recovery and lifting a Denali plow on most machines.
- V3 6,000 wide spool: adds $80, a wider drum and 60 ft of rope. A good pick for heavier machines, crew cabs with a loaded bed, or anyone who winches other people out.
Older Ranger Checklist
- Load-test the battery before you add a winch. A tired battery on a 10-plus-year-old Ranger is the most common reason a new winch feels weak.
- Clean and tighten the battery terminals, and replace any green, corroded cable ends.
- On the 6x6, the long chassis means the battery leads have a longer run, so plan the cable route before you start.
- If the front bumper has been bent or replaced, check that the frame mounting holes still line up with the plate.
- A Ranger HD often works with a loaded bed and a trailer; the 6,000 lb wide spool gives more headroom for that kind of pull.

Note: Moto Alliance lists the 2011-2014 Ranger Diesel (900) on both this plate and the mid-size MA11901 plate, so we have left the Diesel off this page. Diesel owners, ask us and we will confirm the right plate before you order.

Who It's For and What Pairs Well
This kit is for owners who still put real hours on an older full-size Ranger: pulling posts, dragging deer, getting a loaded trailer out of a soft field. It is also the lift winch for a Denali plow; see our Polaris Ranger snow plows. Browse more Polaris Ranger winch kits or the full Ranger recovery gear section.
Installation Notes
The MA11900 plate bolts to the Ranger frame with the supplied hardware; the PDF below shows each step and bolt location. On older machines, wire-brush the mounting points and check for rust before you tighten anything. Route the power cables to the battery away from the exhaust, and on a Crew add the extended wiring pack so the leads are not stretched tight.
