Question:

I am considering purchasing an Item # e98989 winch for my ez go st workhorse 480, and have 2 questions. 1: there is a 2trailer receiver on the front. Will the Item # e98989 mount to that receiver? Your videos show the winch bolting to the frame and I need one to mount to the 2 receiver. 2: the engine on the ST 480 is under the seat with the battery. Im concerned the cables to the winch will not be long enough to reach the winch. I have not seen on your website that you could purchase longer cables. Can you help with either of these questions? Thanks.

In order to use the # e98989 ATV winch in the 2 inch receiver on the front of your EZ Go golf cart, you'd want to use a Trailer Hitch Receiver Winch Mounting Plate like part # BDW20061R2. Keep in mind, the winch might have a 5K capacity, but you'll be limited by the capacity of the receiver on your golf cart.

The power lead is 6 feet long, if that's not long enough to reach from the front of the golf cart to the battery, you can get longer cables such as the 10 foot # BDW20307 which includes a quick disconnect so you can easily remove and store the winch when it's not needed.

I've linked to product description videos for the wiring kit and the winch mount.
