Default My new Smittybilt XRC Front Bumper w/ Warn xd9000

Just picked up this bumper as a quick mount for the winch that has been sitting in my garage for a month now. I've had a hard time finding a bumper that I really like, but figured all the new stuff would be coming out during SEMA. Thought this looked pretty good for now though.







I also decided to put a quick connect right behind the grill so that I could swap things out at a later date without having to undo all of my wiring under the hood. Also since you have to mount the winch to the bumper, then the bumper to the vehicle, it just makes things easier. Especially if you ever have to take the bumper off for future mods.

I think most all of the winch mount bumpers allow for standard size winches. Some of the bigger ones like the powerplant might have fitment issues though. This xd9000 does fit good and I found it on eBay for $700 brand new. The guy has them posted all the time, but definitely a good deal and a good fit.

From what the guys at 4wd in Charlotte told me, there is a guy in your area who has the same set-up as me only with the LOD bumpers. That's really what I wanted the most, but another guy in town has them and also was told about the rig in Charlotte. Guess I'll wait and see what SEMA reveals...
