Owners of off-road vehicles who practice driving over rough terrain know how having a winch can sometimes help out. Those who drive Niva and Niva Chevrolet cars often install a winch on the bumper.


Power bumper with winch for Niva 21214
It can help if:

  • the car sat on bridges in mud or sand;
  • you need to cross a river or other water obstacle;
  • it is necessary to remove an obstacle lying on the road - a boulder or a fallen tree;
  • The convoy goes through a difficult route with various obstacles.

Therefore, installing a winch on a Niva or Chevy is a pressing issue for many owners of such cars. To solve this problem, you can contact a car service or try to do this work yourself. In fact, there are no difficulties here - you just need to have some skills in handling tools and materials.

You should know that the installation of a winch on a Niva and a Chevy is different. Chevrolet has some differences that should be taken into account when performing work.

Just don’t buy a cheap Chinese Winch. You'll throw away your money. Their current consumption is crazy, but I generally keep quiet about quality. Also keep in mind that the Chinese Winch 9000 is not even 6000. The characteristics are simply overstated...

I decided to take 4x4 12000.

Well, in tourism we very well practice a regular chain hoist with a JET-A type handle with a 4.5 m long chain. She jerks instantly, she doesn’t give a damn about the dirt. The gearbox on the lever is quite traction, and if one is accelerating in the car, and the other is pulling the swan, then with the proper skill everything can be done very quickly. Also, don’t forget that if you hang the same camp with a steel cable, then it’s +50 kg on the front and add the structure of the bumper, braces and platform there.

We have already pulled out the Niva using a hand winch. One is dragging like a swan, and the other is accelerating!

ideal 9.5 comeup or kingone, 6500 will not be enough, although it depends on how you plan to plant. But there is always not enough winch at the most necessary moment and you always want it to move faster =) Don’t just put the swan in the lounge on the field, be sure to stretch the platform onto the beam, then it will stand forever. China Winch is also an option if you use it very rarely. But unlike the camap, having to sort it out once a year, regardless of whether it was shaking or not, the water and other things that get into it will do their job for both the motor and the gearbox.

Understood! Thanks for the info. Can you tell me more about the mounting and platform? I would like to avoid mistakes in advance.

No one is going to argue with you, and no one knows what you are comparing it to. And no one calls your statements bullshit. Be your own opinion.

If you don’t want to fit in additional equipment, then throw the usual manual one in the trunk. For an ordinary person, in the field behind his back.

This one lies in the UAZ, about 2 times it swans foxed 1-2 meters for about 15 minutes

Chinese winch 6000 More than for you

But won't he be weak?

What kind of wheels do you have?*

I just bought a Niva last summer. First of all, I want to install a winch. The tires are currently Kama Flame.

Maybe in time you will understand the commandment: when the car is not prepared, the winch turns from a means of rescue into a means of transportation.

I told you that I only bought a car last summer. And I’m not a millionaire to buy everything at once. Here I asked for advice about the winch, and not about tires and car preparation.

I answered you. Good luck in your choice. I told you my word, and then do as you wish!

Which winch should you choose for the Niva?

First, you need to decide on the type of winch - do you want to install a permanent winch, or use a portable one. We have a whole section of portable winches. We recommend looking at winches with a thrust of 4000lbs.

In case of stationary installation, in most cases the T-MAX ATW PRO 6000 winch is suitable. This compact and lightweight (only 12 kg) winch with good traction is ideal for off-road enthusiasts, hunters, fishermen and off-road tourism enthusiasts.

The 6500 winch is also a popular solution for installation on Niva and Chevy Niva - it is powerful and fast, but weighs more than 2 times more. We recommend this winch for athletes, as well as those who use a winch very often.

If you have a seriously prepared car, power bumpers are installed, large wheels with toothy tires and you take a heavy load on trips - your option is the Hundred 8.0, Master Winch 8500A or Runva 9.5 XS.

In any case, they don’t take money for asking. Call, ask questions, we will be happy to help you with your choice!

And finally - beautiful rides on Nivas and Chevy Nivas in the mountains of Karachay-Cherkessia

Winch installation options

Portable winch

You don’t have to install a winch at all, but use a portable one. The most popular models of portable winches for Niva are Stokrat SN 6.0 S and Superwinch Winch2GO. The traction is quite sufficient, but you can also increase the traction force using a block. Advantages of a portable winch: versatility - you can pull a car by the front/back, you can pull any car, use the winch on the farm or lend it to a neighbor. In addition, you can make a portable winch yourself to suit any requirements; everything necessary for this (platform, wires, connectors, fasteners) can be purchased at Elektrolebedka.ru.

Stationary winch

Until the end of the article we will talk about stationary winches. If you often use the Niva to conquer off-road terrain, and you have to use a winch quite often, we definitely recommend installing the winch permanently. To install it in a standard bumper, and in the case of the Niva, rather ON a standard bumper, you will need to make or buy a platform. You can easily find how to do this on the Internet. It is recommended to install lightweight winches 6000-6500lbs on the Niva. Below we offer you winches that, according to all criteria, are ideal for installation on the Niva. In most cases, a winch suitable for civilian use is T-MAX ATW 6000, but if you have a seriously prepared car, then it is better to choose a traction force of 6500-8000.

Installing a 4Revo winch in a standard Niva Chevrolet bumper

Features of the hidden installation of a winch in a Chevrolet Niva using the example of a 4Revo SRX 9500 car winch

When it comes to the hidden installation of a winch on a Chevrolet Niva, usually the first thing you think about is some kind of ATV “six thousand” with permanent magnets or another equally skinny similarity.
From the outside it seems that nothing serious can be installed in the standard bumper, and everything behind the radiator grille is packed very tightly. But nothing is impossible - our Kazan friends from the All-Wheel Drive Workshop proved it by secretly installing a full-size 4Revo SRX 9500 car winch on a Chevy Niva. How did they do it?

The first step was to remove the outer plastic shell of the bumper from the car and cut a hole in it for the fairlead where it should be.

Then it was time to cut the bumper reinforcements. The lower one was completely removed as unnecessary: ​​its place and role goes to the winch platform.

The upper amplifier was partially cut. Having noted the exact location, the middle was removed from it, which would interfere with the winch.

As a result, there was a place to put a winch platform and bolt it to the side members. A cut towing eye was welded directly to the site.

In its same old place, but moving it forward a few centimeters relative to the standard position. Now it will be much more convenient to use. It will be possible to hook a normal-sized shuckle.

Sound signals from under the radiator grille moved inside the left edge of the bumper amplifier. You can hear them from there just as well.

The only thing obstructing the placement of the winch is the air conditioner radiator. But it doesn't matter. If you slightly modify its brackets, it can be moved back almost close to the main radiator. This is just enough to fit a 4Revo SRX 9500 automotive winch onto the site.

All that remains is to secure the electric winch, connect the wires to it and put on the bumper. Ready!

Nothing is impossible; you can install a winch on a Niva Chevrolet with your own hands.

Electric winch STOKRAT SD 8.0 SSW

For the Chevrolet Niva with serious off-road preparation - power in a compact package.

Stokrat engineers managed to create a winch with a traction force of 8000lbs in a compact body. This winch has the same power motor as the T-MAX 6500 and a slower 216:1 gearbox. Despite this, the winch not only outperforms its closest competitor in terms of power, but according to the manufacturer, it also demonstrates the same winding speed. This model went on sale in 2015, replacing the winch with a traction force of 6000lbs.

Electric Winch 6000 LBS

Let's start with the most affordable winch, sufficient in terms of traction force for the Chevrolet Niva. Electric Winch winches are very popular in our country, due to their low price, high declared characteristics and the presence of radio control included with the winch. This is the only winch that is not covered by a warranty in our store. We only guarantee that the winch is initially in working order, and we eliminate deficiencies only if they are identified at the stage of installation of the winch.

Improvements for carbureted SUVs

If you have a carburetor Niva, off-road tuning must necessarily involve the installation of electric fans with sensors for radiators. In modern, injection models, they are installed directly at the factory, but before there was no trace of such “luxury”. Native, with forced activation - must be removed

Why? It’s simple - when you slowly and carefully “sneak” along deep ruts in the summer, the engine will overheat greatly from the load, and the antediluvian mechanical fan will spin slowly at this time, unable to cope with cooling the hot engine. You understand that in this mode the engine will not last long

Electric winch T-MAX ATW-6000 OFF-ROAD Improved

The lightest winch is only 10-12 kg with a thrust of 6000lbs, sufficient for a Chevrolet Niva

This winch has a uniquely powerful pull for its size and weight. Its installation will not affect the car’s handling in any way, but it will cope with almost any difficulties. The winch is ideal for all types of off-road rides, but the operating speed is too low for competitions.

In addition, the price is the cost of rubles.

Initially, the front bumper and metal protective plate are removed. In ascending order I reached the gas burner.

Installing a winch on a Chevrolet Niva Conclusion Fishermen, hunters and travelers who often have to travel in off-road conditions use a winch quite often. Its presence inspires confidence in the driver and helps to find a way out of a variety of emergency situations.

Installing such a mechanism is not difficult. All that remains is to drill one, the most time-consuming and critical hole on each side member.

People's experience in installing this site

You need to drill from the inside of the engine compartment. The space there does not allow the use of a conventional drill. I drilled first with a small battery and thin drill, then with an angle drill. You can use the angle attachment on a regular drill. When drilling, I had to remove the power steering pulley so it wouldn't interfere.

I repeat, the metal of the spar is of maximum thickness, at least 4 mm. After assembly, it looks like this. If you remove the winch and hang the license plate in place, it is difficult to guess that there is a bracket installed there. I installed it on my previous car for almost a week, this time I planned to do it in two days. Morning, garage, Niva, let's go.

I’m trying it on to roughly understand what difficulties I’ll have to face, the first ambush - without a good sledgehammer it doesn’t want to fit between the side members, the difference is a millimeter. But it seems to fit, so I continue - I open the spar. If anyone is interested, this is what the spar looks like inside: The procedure is best done on Service station, since it is necessary to remove the bumper and make a special hole in it for the cable to exit

It is also important to install a winch with a synthetic cable, because steel cable can damage the radiator when wound back onto the reel.

Installing a winch on a Chevrolet Niva Since the most popular and effective is the electric winch, we will take it as a basis and install it on the car. Initially, we decide on how the installation will be carried out.

A more rational method is to install it on the inside of the bumper, mounted on a special bracket. For these people, we have implemented the Niva Tech Center, which offers its own development for sale and installation: The bracket is suitable for cars with and without air conditioning. On the winch it is necessary to use only synthetic metal cable; if it is wound on one side of the reel it can damage the radiator.

Among the disadvantages of this winch is the low speed of rewinding the cable; this parameter can be critical for athletes. In addition, it is impossible to work with the engine turned off; One pump in the power steering is often not enough for the simultaneous operation of this power steering and the winch. An electric winch is powered by an electric motor powered by the vehicle's power supply. Today this is a widespread type of winches for Niva Chevrolet SUVs.

Such winches are distinguished by their simple design, convenient use and ease of installation, as well as the ability to operate when the engine is turned off.

Tinned the ends and soldered them into the tips.

Options for winch platforms on a Chevrolet Niva

I got normal wires to the winch. We energize the power wires and check the operation of the winch. So, not a single element of the winch protrudes beyond the plane of the extreme point of the bumper. At this stage, this shnivas threw a specific pig at me.

In order to remove the gearbox, it is necessary to lift out the axle shafts. If the right one came out with the first blow of the reverse hammer, then the left axle shaft took three days to be removed. Karl, this infection drank my blood for three days... I spent all my chemical waste on a soured bearing. In ascending order I reached the gas burner.

I won’t describe the process of removing the bumper, more than enough has already been written about it

The only thing I wanted to draw attention to is that you need to remove the eyelashes from the inner corners of the headlights; the bolt securing the eyelashes does not need to be unscrewed. The process has begun... Cutting off the excess

It should look like this. The bracket is screwed into the back, two bolts need to be replaced with longer ones.

Bracket for a winch in a standard Chevrolet NIVA bumper (hidden installation!)

That is, a winch of any power and width . The platform manufacturer recommends using only synthetic cable (metal cable wound on one side of the coil can damage the radiator).

There is a towing eye.
