The Daystar winch Isolator

A review by Desert Hawk

As a ATV Utility rider I carry most everything one would need for the extreme

conditions of the Desert Southwest and the Mountains, One thing that always

drives me crazy is the noise of something bouncing around on my ATV or in my

cargo box !

With a little foam and and packing carefully I was able to decrease the noise

from the box's,Now the next thing was the winch hook as I do not like to run

it all the way into the Fairlead causing damage to it or becoming stuck.

After using bungee's it helped but looked a little tacky and it always seemed

that someone I knew or myself would end up using them for something else.

Then a Very Good Friend & Riding Buddy told me about the Daystar winch isolator

after a very simple installation,I now have excellent protection for my flairlead best of all No Noise and a couple of really neat features !

I always recommend a pair of gloves when working with any winch,With this design

the Daystar Winch Isolator has a custom made fit with finger grips that ease

the control of the cable in and out plus if ever the cable should snap it helps

decrease the wild snapping that is so dangerous with any winch's.

So not only did I solve my winch hook noise and banging problem,I'm protecting

my flairlead,keeping unwanted trail material from coming into the cable spool

and kept my machine from looking tacky and ready for any job involving my winch

with a little more safety !

On a scale of 10 I would rate this product A 10+ and would recommend this to

anyone who has a winch on any type of vehicle...Yes I'm that impressed !

      1st problem, Does anyone know where I can find a stock carb for my Timberwolf, I have tried two different aftermarket carbs and they both suck. The machine runs great until it gets good and warm, then it keeps stalling unless I feather the throttle. it will even stall while I'm trying to go from 1st to reverse or vise versa. I took it to a buddy of mine who is a bike mechanic for years, and he told me try to find a factory carb. When I look online from dealers it says "NOT AVAILABLE" anyone have any suggestions ?
       
      2nd, The small tab on the rear axle for towing is to short for even pulling my small yard trailer, I can't even turn a little bit and hit hits. I tried making an extension which worked great as far as length, but it bends the tab and then the extension drags the ground. I have an idea of what to do to fix it, but wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and see how you solved it.

      I have a Yamaha Timberwolf 4x4 250. I want to put a winch on it, but just wondering if the charging system will handle it or not ? Has anyone added one to their machine and have you had any issues?

      So we are almost a month into winter and I've been so busy working on my house that up until today, I didn't realize that we just haven;t gotten any real snow yet to warrant putting the plow on my grizzly. So that got me thinking, what are the latest plows out there and what ATV plows are the best? I've got 2 snow plows for my grizzly, a quadboss pile driver atv plow set up and a snowsport ATV plow. They are both a bit dated now and I tend to stick with the snowsport due to ease of use and I just like it so much. So if you have a plow on your ATV, please let us know what it is and post a picture with your atv/plow would be awesome. Would also like to know what you like and dislike about it.
      This is back a while when I did a write up on these 2 plows.... in 2009 I got the snowsport and in 2012 I got the quadboss.

      I have a Sportsman 450 HO and almost killed my self when loading it on my truck with ramps.  It rolled off the top of the ramps and tailgate and nearly landed on me.  I now want to winch the ATV in to the truck.  My question is are the front side bed tiedowns in my 2011 RAM strong enough to winch to without distorting the hooks or sides of the bed?

      I like to ride in wooded and grassy areas. It takes my mind off the everyday routines and helps me deal with my father's cancer. Also gives me a reason to get involved with forums like this one.
