Yeah, the rear bumper is also set up for a winch, which I don’t have installed yet but should soon. Planning on a Smittybilt 10,500 lb or a Mile Marker 12,000 lb mainly because those two winches are relatively small and will fit in the tight spot well. There is an old school Hickey Sidewinder under the front bumper as well.
This picture kinda shows how the receiver is secured under the frame. Yes, it does smack, snag and hit just about everything on the trail.
