Avoid misalignment and binding in your winch setup with the KFI Fairlead Spacer Kit Wide for Winch Mounts. This aftermarket spacer kit is designed for select 2025 Polaris Ranger XP 1000 and Ranger Crew XP 1000 models, delivering precise mounting spacing so your fairlead sits true and tracks smoothly through every leaf and obstacle. It includes two 1/4" spacer plates and matching 3/8"-16 hardware, enabling either 1/4" standard spacing or 1/2" spacing when stacked, with a 6.00" hole-to-hole layout to match frame clearance. Durable, outdoor-ready, and simple to install, this kit keeps your winch setup aligned for reliable rope management on the trail or farm.

This spacer kit brings a tangible advantage to off-road use: it tackles common mounting challenges caused by growing frame clearance needs and varying bumper designs. By offering exact 1/4" or 1/2" spacing options and a robust 6.00" hole-to-hole footprint, it preserves fairlead alignment across different configurations and bumper clearances, helping you avoid binding or misalignment that can shorten winch life or impair performance. With all required mounting hardware included, installation is straightforward and repeatable for dependable, long-lasting performance in rough terrain.

Installation Notes:

• Prepare mounting surfaces: Clean the winch mount and bumper surface to remove dirt, burrs, and corrosion before fitting spacers.
• Align for square fit: Place spacers first, then the fairlead, ensuring the 6.00" hole-to-hole spacing lines up with the winch mount pattern.
• Use proper hardware: Install the included 3/8"-16 bolts and nuts; do not substitute different thread sizes.
• Torque guidelines: Tighten in a cross pattern using standard 3/8"-16 hardware per your vehicle’s mount spec and apply threadlocker to prevent loosening.\n
• Check clearance: After installation, verify there is no contact between the fairlead/strap path and the frame or bumper at full steering lock and suspension travel.
• Re-check after troubleshooting: After the first test run, retorque the bolts to factory specs to account for any settling or vibration.
