Time to deal with the front bumper. The old pto winch mount is cool so I'm going to re-use it. I have an old Warn 8274 winch that will look good and work well on this truck.

The pto winch and its bracketry was mounted in this bumper almost permanently with a lot of thick steal. Very well done. It all had to be cut out with a grinder and cutting torch.

I then cut out enough of the middle to fit the Warn winch mount. Today was just mock up day to see how it all fits. Tacked in a few places and bolted to the truck. It fit nicely.

Then I set the winch in place to check fit. Pretty good but I think tomorrow I will move it down one inch and to the rear an inch.
