So, I have a '84 200 ES that came with a warn winch on the rear of it, with a control on the handle bar. Works for sure, but sometimes I wish it were in the front..

Just found a '85 250 SX ( yes, i officially have the disease..) with great front & rear racks and a tow hitch. Was considering putting it on the front, so I can see what I am winching at, and also once my trailer was stuck and it would have been great to have the trailer on the hitch, and winch forwards... rather than lash the 3wheeler to a tree, and winch the trailer with someone guiding it forwards..


Curious what your experiences are like with both ?
