I've seen the parts fiche on the Mopar site for the 05 factory winch option, but does anyone have any other info on it? Was there any kind of special facia that replaced the stock bumper facia or did it just use the standard front facia? It looks like it was all hidden. I'd like to have a winch up front, especially one that was tucked inside.

Pretty sure that was Power Wagon only. That's why you never saw a PW with the sport bumper; had to have enough room for the tow hooks and winch.

I think that would work on my truck., Except I have an intercooler, a condenser, and a trans cooler that might be in the way.

Nah, look at that picture again; it's underneath. All that stuff is directly behind the grille.
