I wouldnt be concerned with it lifting it up... if you look at the math your doing the right thing. The weight difference between the big block / diesel vs a small blaock will average 2-300lbs.... by the time you throw a wich bumper and a winch, plus its mounted further forward over the wheels.... I bet you will be right back on the money.
