Went to the Suziki dealership and they were willing to bend over backwards to help me. . . damn honda peoples. . .

Any reccomendations for a good site for mounitng kits for the winch? I found one or two, but not sure of their "reliability"

The Ramsey works with the Warn mounting plate, so just find the best deal on one of those and you're set.

I've seen 'em on eBay, so do a search there and see if one comes up.

I cannot find the right mounting kit for my quad.

I am putting the Ramsey 3000 on my Honda Rincon. ('03) I can find hte mounting kits for hte Warn winch 2500, but not a 3000. Not sure if I should be looking at one of these 2500 or the 2.5ci instead of looking for a 3000 mounitng kit. . . Any advice.

Honda man
You can always get a little better than listed prices if you call Brian. Also ask about cash price. Paypal and credit card orders charge him(Brian) 3 to 5% but, You will have to wait for your check to clear before shipment.

I always shop around to get the best price first and then call Brian.
He has alot more parts that are not listed on his site.
