Am I the only one who misses the "Old" way of mounting winches to our trucks? I mean winch bumpers now days stick out way to far and hang to low and cost too much. I am not an old guy but BACK IN MY DAY we mounted winches up high to gain ground clearance, most of our winches were right in front of the grill. The bumpers did not weigh a ton.
My favorite winch of all time is the Warn 8274. I have had many of these and they are really easy to build and customize. If you do not know this is a stand up feet front winch. Most of the bumpers now days do not support this type of winch even tho it is one of the best winches ever made. I laugh and think the Warn Trans4mer winch mount has it right. Don't stick out to far don't weigh a lot maybe a lil bit pricy.
I have a Suburban with a winch on it and I will try to post a pic. It is a real simple bumper, lightweight ETC. I guess I just miss this style of bumpers.
Anybody with me or am I just crazy?
