I am looking for information or pictures if any one has them for the factory attachment setup for a PTO winch.

My project truck came with a with a factory PTO winch but sometime in it's life someone attached a large steel winch bumper and took a cutting torch to the frame nose and then started welding heavy plate in place directly on the frame.

I can fix the frame problem but I want to find out exactly how the factory winch mount was done with a factory bumper if possible? Anyone Know about this?
Thanks

Thanks, every time I look at it I get excited about working on it.

The farmer I got it from used it with his wife on their buffalo ranch to drive around and haul feed and water to the buffalo, that's why the body is so beat up, the buffalo beat the truck around a lot. The wife told me she didn't realize just how strong a buffalo was until one day when one of them put his horns under the front of the truck and lifted it off the ground.
