Factory Bumper Winch Install
Hey everyone, did a decent amount of research and couldn't find much info. Was looking to add a winch to my 4runner, but dont plan on aftermarket bumper. Been in enough precarious situations by myself where this made since. Ok, on with details and pics.
Harbor Freight universal winch plate-$40
3/16s Angle steel 4 ft. plus 3/16s flat steel-$16
Friend with Welder and my imagination....
Smittybilt XRC 9500 with synthetic line (wanted to keep weight down)
Dont have the best pics but surprised i remembered this many lol.

Very nice and clean looking. I have a Shrockworks bumper and my sphincter is clenching knowing I'm going to have to either remove it or do some cutting to get a winch in there.

That is awesome, exactly what I am looking to do. Any chance you could snag some pics of where you welded it to the frame? or any specific cuts you had to make?

Thanks for the positive remarks. Attached another pic to maybe answer the attachment point. Basically mounted to the crossmember attachment to the frame. Here is a pic of figment early on. Then these brackets were welded to the harbor freight mount. So, if need be, this is not to difficult to remove.

This is very helpful!! I had looked at the Budbuilt hidden mount and was thinking I should be able to build something cheaper. Thanks for sharing!

stickw: Looks awesome! I am considering doing something similar. Have you used winch with your setup and is it able to handle the weight of the 4runner in similar situation as being stuck?

test
I have not used the mount yet to test the strength. I am going to Moab mid may, but will try and do some testing before then and report back. Hope its strong, as if its not, would defnately cause a bumper problem.....

I am interested in your test. If result is positive I plan to copy your design and do something similar with my rig.

Wow. Finished work looks very nice, wasn't expecting it to be that nice when reading the first post. Great job though!

test
Ok, I am open to ideas for what you would consider a worthy test, and don't tell me to hook to a tree limb and lift the whole front end. I am think incline, maybe some brake pressure during a pull etc.... let me know what you would do to be satisfied with the result. thx. I have family in all weekend but may be able to do early next week and post back.
