Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, you will need to purchase a separate mounting plate specifically designed for your 2012 Kubota 900XT RTV that is also compatible with the winch you select.
According to Kubota, the Kubota 2012 900XT RTV weights approximately 2,000 lbs. depending on the options that were equipped. If you are interested in a winch to help pull you out of sticky situations, you would want a winch with a line strength pull capacity slightly higher than the weight of your RTV.
I recommend using the Superwinch Terra Series ATV Winch part # SW1125230 as this winch has a line pull strength of 2,500 lbs. In addition to line pull strength, it also comes equipped with a 50' synthetic rope and hand held remote control. In order to mount this winch to your RTV, I recommend using the Bulldog Winch Custom-Fit Steel Winch Mount part # BDW15172 as this mount is custom-fabricated for the Kubota RTV900.
