Drop brackets or long arms will help a lot too.

Did some adjusting today and got the winch wired and working. The winch didn't work at first because all of the hardware was caked in road crap. Wire wheeled all the contact points and bolts. Everything is all good.

Got my Napier flares today. Almost finished welding the bumper braces then I will install the flares.

I wonder how they will fit with the cut fenders...

awesome! If you need a hand let me know. What I did was make a template for the flares. I just traced them onto a piece of cardboard. Gave a good visualization on where they were gonna go.

I actually like that the winch is below the grill. It won't impede on cooling
