Finally got around to picking up my winch bumper and putting it on. Now I just need to find a winch. I think I am going to add a receiver mount to it so I can hook up to a trailer with the front of the truck and pull stuff on should work out good.

Nice setup, I like those style bumpers.

If you go with a receiver type mount make sure and get a lock on the pin... A friend of mine had his Warn winch borrowed from the front of his toyoda. Two weeks after buying it new and fabing up the mount...

The borrower never returned it... ;Really

The winch will be in the bumper but I would have the receiver so I could slide in my pintle hitch to hook up the the trailer with the front of my truck so the trailer will not move around.

I ran a 12K warn on the front of my F350 and it was more than enough for the truck.
What size are you looking at?

If you have a ZF5, are you going to use the PTO for a hydro winch?

You must be registered for see images attach

the tires barely rubbed only with suspension compressed in a tight turn and that was on the inner fender ran them a few months and had no wear
your 350 is 2 inches higher
