Default winch and bumper

Does anyone know where I can get a good winch for a good price? Also a front bumper with a winch mount for cheaper? Or is anyone selling a winch and or front bumper with a winch mount?

you said you want something for a "good price". remember, you get what you pay for. well it depends on a couple of things. are you going to buy bumpers or fab them. how much do you think you will be using your winch? heres what im going to do and you can kinda base your decisions off of this if you so choose.

i plan on fabbing front and rear bumpers. i am going with the Superwinch Epi9. it is rated for the ammount of duty i have planned and it comes with some cool toys and a good waranty. remwmber that this is my plan and you are more than welcome to copy it, but base it off of your skills and wants/needs.

I home made my bumpers and if you are skilled with a torch and welder you can do the same. Made the front one for under $100 and bought a MileMarker 12,000 pound winch but use it very little since moving to Texas.

Hey Blue, where in Texas do you live? I'm just north of Ft. Worth.
