What is the best Cable Rope for a UTV Winch?
The Synthetic Winch Rope snapped after a few hours of use on the Denali UTV Plow Blade Box with Box End Wings mounted to our new to us RTV-1100C. I repaired using an albright knot, and then secured the remainder of the black abrasion sleeve to the rope with zip ties.
I am sure it will abrade and break again.

Set up is placing too much stress on the rope, by pulling straight back to lift. I did the same thing initially, snapped the cable. Added a pulley, solved the issue. I now run with a synthetic rope.

Does anyone know if the wiring for the rear LEDS is pre-wired for all three possible positions? My 2023 has one on the driver's side. I was going to move it to the middle one and get a little bit bigger one. I'm just curious before I get in that headliner if I may have to extend the existing one, but it would be nice if there was a plug in the middle.

In my stepson's 2019, there were wires, but I had to drop headliner to fit them thru the grommets, and one side I had to extend the wires. All that was necessry was to pull down headliner enough to get my paws in there. I did not have to remove the headliner.

You'll do just fine. The heated cab on the 1100c sure does spoil you.
Froze today taking apart my old plow and loading it up to bring it to a weld shop.

Thanks @mike69440 . I didn't even think to look when I put the front lightbar on. I didn't need to take it out, just drop it. Glad the wires are there though :)
