Compatibility of Bulldog Winch Mount with Optional Bumper on 2019 Polaris 450 Sportsman EPS
Question:
Well I have model#2882301 Polaris farm/ranch front bumper with a hitch on it. Will your Bulldog ATV winch mount #BDW15159 allow me to install one of your winches on it without any modifications being required? Thank You

Helpful Expert Reply:
According to Bulldog winch, they are fairly positive that the # BDW15159 would work with your OEM optional bumper, as shown in the diagram I provided. It looks like the mount wold attach so that the bottom of the winch would sit about halfway up the radiator opening, right atop that horizontal bar at the top of the bumper. You'll want to look at the trim pieces alongside the radiator grill to see if the mounting holes shown in the diagram are present. I was unable to see enough in the photo you'd sent to determine if the mounting holes are there, or if they're located behind the trim and holes would need to be drilled.
There is also a receiver mounted plate available, part # BDW20061R2. The fit of that plate would be a given, and because of that, I'd recommend going that route.
