Default Winch and bumper installed finally!!!
A perfect rainy day to stay in the garage and do the install. Seems like every
mod I have ever done has had issues. I had to inlarge the opening on the top right side of the RR stubby to accept the Superwinch and touch up with paint. Also had to trim the driver side bumper mount. Then I find one of the 4 bolt holes is off for the winch mount and had to dremmel it out. But finally it is
done. Sorry for poor quality pic.

Dam that's the winch I want. I haven't seen it in person yet, how is the build quality, was the wireing straight foward ?

Looks good. did the front sag a lot?
I like the synthetic rope...
I've got a Power Plant winch and ordered the LoD bumper, but can't afford the synthetic rope... can't wait to install and get stuck somewhere to test it out

Looks great! I like that winch and bumper. I am jealous of the synthetic line. It would save me a lot of extra weight out front.

The winch quality seems good but the bumper was a pain!

Build quality seems good although I will put it to the test. I have many trees on my land that I have cut and plan to drag a few out of the woods.
