For you guys that have or had winches. When you buy a bumper for a which does it come with bigger & stronger brackets different from the stock bumper or did you guys have to make them? I'm looking into buying a winch & a bumper and I just wanna make sure when I buy the bumper it will come with everything I need...

If its a winch bumper, it should come with better brackets that extend down the unibody. Make sure it does before you buy it.

you want plates that extend back like this, which pulls on a bigger portion of the uni-body then teh 3 ront bolts. also helps stiffen the steering box mount. the factory 3 bolts is not strong enough to trust a moderate/difficult recovery. its not the bolts or how many, its jus tthe amount of sheet metal (unibody) that its secured to. Last thing you want it a bumper flying at you when your winching off somthing...
