Well got tired of tripping over this winch setup in my garage it was on my jeep, but I built a completely different setup so now Walter gets a winch.
Starting off with a super winch and a generic jeep winch plate I cut the ends off, drilled some holes in the gmc frame to accomodate the winch. I removed gawd awful ugly solenoid pack off the top of the winch to get to fit so snuggly up in between the grill and rad support, maybe have 1/4" clearance all around it. Had to notch the grill support just a bit. The solenoids will get moved to up under the hood for a clean look. This will be the "base" to start the bumper build it's going to be sleek and slightly resemble the stock bumper lines with a pre runner look... I hate massive bro dozer bumpers on all the dirty max and cummins. Plus no one makes a stout winch bumper for our trucks that doesn't look like a railroad tie with an I beam welded to it. So here it goes.
Top view looking down the grill it's almost flush with the face of the grill.
