Warn 62041 Report


Warn 62041 Review by J. Lee (Lebanon, NH)

Looking at the picture, I expected the receiver portion to be solid steel (as you would find in a trailer hitch receiver). However, it's hollow! I bought this to use with a recovery strap on my Subaru, as I can't find a trailer hitch with a 2" receiver to fit the vehicle. After a phone call to Warn, I learned that this is rated for a 4000lb ATV winch (hence the hollow construction) and is not robust enough for my intended purpose.

For ATV purposes, I'm sure it would be fine - but for anyone looking at using it with a Class I/II trailer hitch on a car, I would recommend purchasing bar stock and drilling it out. Note to Amazon - listing the weight rating would be very helpful! I can't give this product a low rating since I did, after all, buy it for a different purpose than intended...however, I'd like to see someone else avoid running into the same problem I did.

Made with solid steel stock, not hollow tubing. A little loose in receiver but you use it to pull, not drive around town.


Warn 62041 Review by Barbara Gerosa (New Rochelle, NY, US)

I should have looked into this product prior to order. Like another review stated, this product is fabricated out of hollow tubing. Yes it will function as needed, but solid stock would feel more solid and is what I was hoping to get. The hole for the hitch pin is drilled pretty close to the end allowing only a small amount of material to go into the receiver which creates a lot of play when installed. I will drill another hole closer towards the shackle to allow it to go in about another two inches into the receiver which will correct some of that. Lastly, the shackel needed to be stretched out to fit over the mount as it wouldn't fit right out of the package. I will continue to look for a solid unit to replace this with.

Warn 62041:: Description


For ATV use with multi-mount winches, this shackle bracket does the trick. It uses 1-1/4" class I receiver as a pulling/recovery point or tow hitch. Bracket comes with hitch pin and shackle.
