Here is mine with an integrated winch. It is a Switchblade by HD Customs LLC. The tire carrier is a "one hander" and the tire carrier has a crank to lower the tire to the ground which is kind of nice given the height and size of my tires.

I have both the front and rear Olympic Smuggler Bumpers with winches front and back. Both mounted without problems and I have installed with near perfect fit the Warn Powerplant in front and the Warn 9000 winch in the rear. I did have to mount the rear solenoid box in the cavity below the rear carpet deck and use aftermarket 32" leads to make the connection from a more distant location.

The Rear Smuggler Bumper is increadiable easy to install and easy to use, U dont have to relocate or remove anythng but the originial bumper. The $1400. is cheap when you consider all your getting and we have them in stock just order it thru your favorite 4wd store or mail order company.

Do you have any follow-up on the Smuggler Rear Winch Bumper? How is it holding up, what is the build quality like, etc.

Back Bumper: Hitch/Winch/Battery Set-up
Hey Guys - I'm not too good at sending pictures on the forum yet (only 2nd time here), but here's my set-up. Pretty simple as one can see and handy for me.
Hope you guys can view it.
I have plenty of space from "bottom" of my stock tire -to- "top of" - my M8000 winch, so no problem there. Should bigger tires come into play (in near future), and make this present set-up, non-operational, I may have to re-think...and "Go-up-Front" to use (Portable or Stationary..will have to wait and see) !
When getting ready to use, it's nearly a Plug-n-Go. I attach cables to top posts, set battery/case under bumper, stand off to side to use the hand controls...all with the tailgate closed. The carrier/winch might weigh in the area of ~ 85-90# (??), and I find this set up very functional, for now. I prefer to 'lift the unit' into place ....as opposed to ... encourage 'any sag' on JK's back end; besides, I've already added 110# just by replacing stock bumper with the Body Armor bumper.
Side Note: My good looking blue synthetic line awaits me for a warmer day, for an install! lol So Come'on Spring!
{Need One ? - I got an Extra !}
