I am going to need to take a look at my locker in the front and change the oil soon so after this trip when i get some time off, be good reason. She sits up pretty good, I think my leafs are sagging a little, but yeah should be good. I ain't too crazy of a driver.

Hell throw it in the back and i'm sure we'll have enough tools out there to put it on if really needed...
Just kiddin, but for real I have been thinkin about selling my bumper to get a new one so that i can get a winch... just unsure which i like as far as bang for the buck...

honestly probably leaning towards stayin with JCR...

and i will have to see if i am working/available for the RC run lord knows i want to be out there...

Depending what style you want, there are some members who make custom bumpers at pretty good prices. I was talking to one of them about a tube bumper with a winch plate for under $350 shipped. PM me if you're interested. Another member talks very highly of him and loves his work.

Yeah I have thought about it, but honestly I ain't a great welder. The rest of it wouldn't be a problem, cause i was in Local 85 sheetmetal out of Atlanta before I became a soldier...but don't have a tube bender either....

I have seen a couple, and most look great and beefy, I don't want tube for the main part, I like the slim, tapered look of JCR, or Logans, my only problem is i would prefer the winch plate a little deeper/lower in the bumper and not blocking the grill... I will have to find a pic of my buddies JK, we put his winch in between the frame rails basically upside down...its hidden and works like a gem.

hell yeah! that is soo cool, if i could get a baby sitter i would bring mine along too and she would be just as bad if not worse, lmao. She freaked out and panicked at anything without asphalt...

From what I am seeing, wouldn't be too hard to modify your bumper for a winch, and keep the winch low to boot... only need 9" of space from grille to front face of bumper...
