Sled deck with two snowmobiles on a 2024 Power Wagon

Interesting, thanks...I'll check mine..I just cycled mine in and out last week..prob a couple months late on that..When does this rot start to show itself?

I have just over 100k miles and 8 northern michigan winters on my truck…i havnt had an issue yet.

Alberta winters are hard on equipment. I’m not sure at what mileage but I would expect it varies depending on where you live. Lots of salt and slush doesn’t help so I would say check it frequently

Well, I pulled the trigger and brought home a 2024 PW a couple days ago. I have that list of parts I shared in an earlier thread on order along with some other mods. I'll report back on how the truck does with the sled deck/sleds and the camper in the summer.

As for the winch, is it possible to reverse winch the PW by putting the cable underneath the vehicle and winching it backward?

Good for you! Congrats...I wouldn't order a bunch of stuff until you see how she handles what you need....Your money
...No way I would run the cable under the truck and pull her backwards...but maybe someone's done it and it works awesome..dunno

REALLY bad idea. Use a proper 3 or 4 snatch block system to reverse winch. If you google reverse winching, there are lots of great videos on them.

I agree that running the winch under the truck is probably a bad idea. I hope you enjoy your new truck

I've heard of people doing this. The biggest issue is that you would have the winch line rubbing and binding up against the underbody of the rig pretty hard. Assuming you would be running the line under the axles, so hoping you either didn't break the line or break/bend something on the underbody. Wouldn't suggest doing this unless it was an emergency.
