THe LFD bumper has a huge opening so you can see it, but then the line is exposed to UV all the time. Not sure which is the worse of two evils...

Winch line at factory is spooled with no load. Respool with some tension recommended to allow the winch line to have a better hold on the drum.

Right, but what about after a recovery? If you attachment point isn't directly in front of the winch, wouldn't the line pile up on the side of the spool?

You can see the line inside pretty easy through the grille and the fairlead. Getting the spool tangled up is a much bigger issue with wire rope. I've never had an issue with synthetic. The fairlead is narrow enough that it'll still spoil fine regardless of the pull angle.
Ideally it's evenly distributed, but it's really not meaningful because you'll be pulling most of the line off the spool for most which pulls. So if 30 feet is all off to one side, you'll be pulling it back off the spool before the next use anyway.
Ultimately it's just not a problem that really ever happens on the smaller spool winches that fit in these. I have had issues at times on my 8274, but it holds twice as much line on a much larger spool and pulls a lot faster. In that case I do re spool occasionally after a trip to reset it.

Pretty much agree, steel rope is a different animal, but with synthetic rope after I finish a pull I usually take the time to reset it. IF it looks bunched up on a single side. All you have to do is keep minimal resistance on the rope and guide it back in in a controlled side to side manner.

I'll bump this back up, I installed the bumper and a Smittybilt X2O Gen 2 12k winch last night... I'm not mechanically inclined, was working on the ground, and also had to remove the Apex Overland Front Recovery Points (and install a sway bar spacer) and the total time was probably in the neighborhood of 5ish hours (including setting up the winch) with another pair of hands helping me.
My bumper was another of the Amazon purchases, with a few Amazon gift cards accumulated, it made wonderful fiscal sense. That being said, mine had a few paint chips and there is a slight dent in the top tube on the driver's side, neither of these are worth sending it back over.
Things of note (other people have said this, but in case someone stumbles upon this reply)...
-- The Warn bumper is NOT compatible with the Apex Overland Front Recovery Points, not even close
-- I did have to space the sway bar down or else the Warn frame extension brackets would have hit it
-- I did not use the small flat bumper brackets, I saw no point in doing this. The driver's side was fine with the single 10mm into the fender liner (through the bottom of the bumper); and the passenger's side was fine with the 10mm and the Warn-supplied bolt w/ fender washer & nut
-- If you use a Smittybilt X2O winch, mount the control box on the center or slid towards the driver's side. Both of these allow very easy access to reach in through the front bumper holes and reach the wireless switch, the wired plug in, as well as the clutch release
-- Easiest way to bolt the winch in, support the bumper on two chairs and lay under it
-- For bumper trimming, just inside the silver trim (TRD Off Road/Trail) seems to be a very good starting point. We did minor sanding after that phase and then hit the trimmed bumper edge with some door edge guard.
Oh, and now a photo (sorry, it was nearly 1am, taking pics was not high on the list of priorities at the time)
As a side note my plan is to upgrade to Dobinson's 314 springs (with my 574 struts); I already have the in the garage, but we leave for a 5500 mile trip in a few days and I don't see the install happening before the trip...

Bumper Weight - OME Springs
That bumper is just under 90 pounds and a Warn (not SB)10K winch weighs 80.3 pounds. The OME 2885 HD coil accommodates up to 180lbs over stock. The bumper looks great! What brand of light-bar did you use? Thanks,

I like the look, and the two fit great together, no issues..
The 4Runner does ride a bit nose heavy, which is to be expected, i think combined weight is 100lbs (ish) But I have an OME medium suspension that will compensate.
I had a light bar already in my grill and the bar does not interfere.
So far I really like it!

So I installed mine today. I was unsure of the trimming, so I figured I would post my cutting.
I followed the side groove all the way up, then 1 & 1/4 inch down from the bend all the way across the front. The little bumper cover flap (the 1 1/4 bit) edge sat up a bit so I put two small bolts in that just tighten with a fender washer on the inside. This provides enough "pull" to make the bumper cover sit flush on the top of the warn bumper.
Definately needed the sway bar drop to avoid contact. I did have to oval one bolt hole, but no biggie.
Hope this helps someone.

I bought a Warn 100022 hybrid bumper/winch mount, but hardware and parts are missing. I am wondering if someone could measure the center to center hole distance for the 2 parts label “A5”? (These go from the Warn to support the outer oem plastic bumper)

Well my Warn Hidden winch mount showed up with damage-
the scary part is the cardboard has barely got a mark on it but look at this dent in the bullbar>
Makes me think that bullbar is some very thin steel.
Have an email in to the seller asking for a replacement or an adjustment.

Happened to me as well, but not on the bull bar. My seller knocked off 100 dollars. I would ask 200 for a dent like that though.
