Side By Side / UTV Aluminum Recessed Winch Shackle with Fairlead Kit — closed latch (LIFE TIME WARRANTY*)

Winching without looking like you fumbled the last camping trip — now that’s progress. The SIDE BY SIDE ATV/UTV Aluminum Recessed Winch Shackle with Fairlead Kit brings clean, low-profile function to your rig so you can get unstuck and keep your dignity.

Built for riders who actually use their machines (and occasionally test the laws of terrain), this kit is part of AXG Life — Life, Adventure-Ready gear that’s both practical and a little proud of itself.

Key Features & Design

• Purpose-built for side-by-side and UTV applications — engineered to fit where generic shackles stumble.
• 6061 billet aluminum construction — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and tough enough for the trails.
• Recessed winch shackle design — low-profile mounting that keeps your front end tidy and snag-free.
• Includes fairlead kit — smooth rope or cable guidance to reduce wear and improve line control.
• Closed latch configuration — secure connection that won’t pop open at awkward moments.
• LIFE TIME WARRANTY* — because durability isn’t negotiable (read warranty terms for details).

Performance / Benefits

This kit turns your winch from a panic-button into a dependable tool. The 6061 billet aluminum body keeps weight down without sacrificing strength, so you don’t drag unnecessary mass into the bush. The recessed design protects the shackle and fairlead from snags while giving your UTV a sleeker profile — less catching on trail brush, more confidence on tight lines.

With the included fairlead, your synthetic rope or steel cable runs smoother, lasts longer, and behaves better under load. The closed latch adds peace of mind when you’ve got a full recovery on your hands: it stays locked until you decide otherwise. In short, this kit helps you solve real problems — recover buddies, avoid teardown drama, and make better stories around the campfire.

Whether you’re rescuing friends, hauling gear, or testing that “shortcut,” the Side By Side / UTV Aluminum Recessed Winch Shackle with Fairlead Kit is the quiet, competent teammate you want bolted to your bumper. AXG Life — Life, Adventure-Ready.
