Default ZJ Winch

Hello.

Have you aver seen a ZJ with a winch on/in the stock bumper? Got pics?
A friend doesn´t like the look of the aftermarket bumpers like ARB. But he wants winch..

Thanks.

do a bumper search. I have sorta that idea. it could be possible to mount one without as much bumper cutting, only issue I see would be the winch sticking out to far. This is mine. I have a bumper build thread so you can see what you have to work with once you remove the bumper cover.
