Winch mounting?

[rhkcommander]

got any pictures?

I'm definitely not opposed to custom, as long as it ain't ugly!
Welding/etc is no problem

If you are interested I build custom bumpers and assure you they are not ugly. I prefer the "hidden" winch mounts, but with the way your bumper mounts to the frame, it makes it a challenge to put a winch behind the bumper. However, if you are not opposed to welding bracket or mounting tabs to the frame that changes things.

I'd be interested in what your work looks like as well. I'm not immediately in the market, but soon!

I like the idea of a custom bumper except most of em are kinda ugly. Bumpers are suppose to have some give, if They don't give then something else might.

Exactly, like the FRAME

This is just a taste- I have something for anyone and can change to your liking. I don't want to over step my bounds since I am new here by posting links unless I become a vendor. PM me for any additional info and I will get back to you.

And your back . I'd at least use some bump stops at the minimum... Has anyone ever mounted a shock absorber or anything similar?

Found a winch mount and receiver for around 200$ so far good for 9k lb. Still planning things out

Awesome work hihorse! Can you do ccustom plates like that longhorn one?

 

[HiHorse]

rhkcommander-- Did you find a manufactured mount? Is it new or used for that price? Winch craddles for recievers are only rated for a 9500lb winch or less, more than suitable.

Yes, that is actually a buffalo skull. Bumper was built for the buffalo keepers of the national grasslands. Thought it was a nice touch-bolted on in 3D affect.

O cool, i like the look of the one on the brick nose (the other ones are sweet to but they look like their more pricey) How heavy approx is it? I have a 93 f250, Im located in Canada but maybe in summer if shippings to much I could come scoop it

and these are winch bumpers?

Would you be able to do the Khanda (in my avtar) in chrome in the middle of bumper?

PM enabled!! Sorry, took me a while to find it. Yes I can do custom parts of all kinds. Thanks

new mount and receiver but i might have to modify the receiver to fit.

Curt mfg didn't list support for anything older than a 92, i know 87-91 should all be the same but i dont know if the frames changed past that. I ordered the one for a 4x4 92 so we will see...
I'll be making a new bumper and mounting two tow loops up front. I have another two for the back later
