Off Road Bumper and the Winch
Re: Off Road Bumper and the Winch
You don't need to move the winch at all. Mine is very happy nestled in the factory spot behind my awesome Aluminess Slimline Bumper.
Enjoy this life, cause it's all we're getting.
Re: Off Road Bumper and the Winch
I also think this is a Great idea, for it gives your winch cable a much better straight shot to the spool, so you have less bad wrapping during winching...BigRed2007 wrote:Didn't move my winch. Left the roller fair lead in place as well. It is a straight shot out the front of the ARB bumper.

Re: Off Road Bumper and the Winch
When my house is finished (2 attached garages, and 2 detached garages, i'll have extra room to add a front bumper and rear bumper for parking. i'm definitely going with Road Rhino. gonna Lin-x it to match line-x rockers and flares too. Would love some lights mounted in the rear pumper for the boat. tow hooks in front for high-lift points, and maybe tow hooks in back for high lift points.
i'll leave the winch in stock location to start and see how it works. i'm tired of my front bumper and spoiler tearing and bending. besides, what's an extra 100 pounds on it. yeah, aluminuss is lighter but i like the looks of Road Rhino.
