My goal was to have the winch sit low and tight so it did not block my radiator and impact my cooling. I will add some build pics, I was alone when I built it so I didn't take too many.

 

 

Looks good!

 

Clean up ya welds and she'll be pretty.

 

Looks awesome! What thickness did you use?

 

3/16" plate. Yes I do need to clean up the welds, in time it will happen.

 

I like it.
But, Like lowrange2 said clean up the welds on the edges of the bumper it would look great!
Good Job!

 

Looks good,

Does it have any support behind the bulkheads on the corners where the L brackets tie in to the mounting plate.

 

Yes, all the 90 deg angles are backed up with 1 1/2" angle and the bottom and back sides are capped off with gussets inside.

 

Nice ! Sounds like it is strong .

 

So cool

 

I also doubled up the plate under the winch and tied it into the radiator support for a bit more strength.

 

looks strong, but you should add in 3/4 inch d-ring tabs, welded both sides with a flat gusset plate on the back.
good for pulling with a strap, and using a ****** block for a 2 line pull.

 

I have recovery hooks under he bumper tied into the "frame" mounts. I wanted to keep the front clean and smooth. When I get back from vacation I am going to clean up the welds and wire up a switch to the inside for the winch.

 

Looks good
