would be nice if I could see it..
The weight isnt bad at all i think i dont have a prob picking it up i unbolted it and pulled it off my self to weld it upI prefer the more low profile styles, but it looks great. I think it will look so much better with the clevis tabs in and the fairlead hole cut out. A stinger would make it look really good aswell. Great job, do you have a rear planned? By the way, do you know how much that weighs?
I don't see anything lol.
Why didnt you extend the mounting bracket thru the bumper for your d-rings? You dont want them "surface" welded to the face of the bumper.yep im going to be puting tow points on it the bumper itself bolts to the frame
Im going to remote mount the the controll box for the winch so ill beable to plug in the controller in the grill or somthing along those line as for the toe points that wont be surface mounted ill cut holes and slide them threw and weld them inside and to the bracket that bolts to the frameWhy didnt you extend the mounting bracket thru the bumper for your d-rings?

Also,how do you access all the controls?

I like what you did with the controll box im goping to steal that idea if thats alright With the clutch handle i already started the same kind of thing you did thanks for the tipsI removed the plug from the relay box and mounted it in the front grill.
The relay box was then mounted under the hood, next to the coolant bottle

How are you going to access the clutch handle?
I clocked the winch so a removable handle could be used through a hole in the bumper.
