Winch options??

[GlOcKnRaM]

So the 35x12.50 were not just for looks. Want to start off-roading in the near future so im looking into winches. I see a lot of guys have replaced their bumpers to do a winch mounted bumper. But I also found this one from Westin, not to sure of it though and how heavy duty it actually is. Anyone have any experience with a winch mounted in these tray holders? Thanks for the help!

Westin Winch Mount, Westin Winch Tray

hmm thats pretty cool looking, but how much weight could you really winch from that spot??

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

My thoughts exactly...like how tough/durable is it?? I want to be able to tow myself or buddies out if needed!

 

[4x4Hemi]

If it works thats sweet! but i would be really worried trying to pull myself out of your really stuck

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

My thoughts exactly..guess ill just have to make sure to bring the straps and some buddies/other trucks

Man I wish I bought a slate grey truck like you and not black so that I could go offroading and not worry about scratches

I sell ALLOT of winches because no one can touch my prices .. hell one member bought two from me .. lol

As for that Westin I sell it also .. sold one to a local with a Ford .. he has pulled tractors out of the mud with it .

Yeah im sure the black shows scratches easier...but hopefully mine wont get scratched up to bad!

I'd say you have the best color of all for offroading. Wanna trade

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

With as much as you have done to yours compared to mine..sure why not haha

 

[4x4Hemi]

Haha hey man you've done a lot to yours already as well!! Have ya put a lot of km on yours?? I feel like I put way to many km on mine

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

Hello! lol

Hemi trucks can fit winches behind the bumper. Not sure if anyone is making bracket for that mount yet or if everyone is making there own. if your looking to keep the oem look you can look up some power wagon part number and get that mounting set.

^^this also..curious to see if a PW mount could work on a 1500, like mentioned the one behind the front bumper. But would it work with a sport bumper??

is there a opening in the sport bumper for the lead?

Definitely a fox box for my subs, then I might start lookin into a light bar or a 6 inch lift soon. You??? I've put 11000km on since April. Which is was like 7-8000m??

Would the spot between the hooks work for the lead?

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

^^this is what I was thinking, like doing away with the black plastic piece right in the middle and opening it up for a winch. Much like the PW bumper.

But this is on my list, along with the body lift and flares which are ordered. Then maybe some JJ headlights!!

 

[4x4Hemi]

Ahh yea jj headlights are on my list to eventually! So sick! Once my hids crap out I'll get some of those
