Herc Outdoors Can Am Defender Heavy Duty Rear Cargo 2500LBS Winch

Can-Am Defender HD Rear Cargo Winch by Herc Outdoors

The Herc Outdoors HD Rear Cargo Winch turns the back of your Can-Am Defender into a one-person loading station. Built specifically to mount on the Defender's upper rear cab frame, this complete kit pairs a 2,500 lb Herc winch with a heavy-duty mount bar that bolts straight to the cage, giving you real pulling power to drag gear, game, equipment, and supplies right into the Defender's bed. With wireless remote operation and brightly colored synthetic rope, this Can-Am Defender cargo winch is built to make the dirty work fast, safe, and hands-free.
