Anyone know of anyone that would be willing to fabricate a winch mount for the 4th gen? I'm moving to Alaska and would really like to have one. I was going to wait for an ARB bumper but if I could get away with just a mount that is welded or bolted (don't know where that would bolt onto) for my needs without all the extra weight.

not sure specifically, but here are some pictures another member (xpdnrunner) posted that show how his winch was mounted when the truck was outfitted originally (he bought it like this)
maybe they'll give ya an idea...
I'm planning on trying to get a local fab'r/friend of mine to build something for me...we'll see what we come up with. my main goal is to come up with a good mount location on the front for more antennas...

winch mount
Hi Guys,
Yah, those pics are from my Runner. I have been AWOL for the last few months. Surfing in Mexico can be addicting. Then, on my return I ran afoul of a herd of Elk one night near Jackson Hole. Can you say $$$$! Anyway, I became very familiar with Safari Gards' prices. They may be interested in doing "one off" winch mounts for anyone interested who can leave their truck for a week or two. The probably won't market these fabs until demand is solid. But they are cool and willing for the right ($$$) customer. It's probably worth it if you can swing it.
So, Tracy, I still want the tires if they are in the garage, say by this summer? And, concerning the Nitrous lift, still no problems, knock on wood. I had the guy who lifted my truck ( Steve from CBI Offroad in Idaho) check out the integrity during the recent repairs. He said it was tight and no XREAS leaks. Go figure, I must be blessed. AK promised he would take care of me despite the genneral opinions around here. I'll take that WORD as BOND until I have reason not to. Again, just my personal and seemingly fortunate experience. Adding Lightforce 170's to the front end next week. This should cure the Elk visibility issue. I will post new pics.
P.S. Only 4 months to bowhunting season!!!
