Idea for my front bumper. The center section is a cross member with winch plate behind it where the stock cross member was. Then weld on the 2 wings with notches for hi-lift, then rails under the front fender cuts.

Thoughts?

Eventually, it will get shackles under it, so the only important part is the center section has to be 37" wide.

I agree, get a date that likes lifted trucks. My gf loves my jeep, I just need to get sliders with the part she can step on so she can get up. she's really short, only 4'11"

Yes, flat. Doesn't stick out much, so the winch would be IN the Jeep so to speak.
