Re: Pics of offroad winch bumpers

here are the pics I took today. the wings are removable separately from the main cradle I coated it with bedliner, but Darren lays down a nice enough bead to go bare if wanted.

Re: Pics of offroad winch bumpers

The Warn "classic" is my favorite. This is a truck my dad built quite a few years ago, I have one for mine but need a winch and a 12.5 warn is the minimum I will settle for, so I'm saving lol

Re: Pics of offroad winch bumpers

I guess it depends if your priority is looks or functionality but for me it made sense to have a winch on the rear as a priority more than on the front. That is not to say, a winch on the front isn’t needed (I currently have an old Hickey Sidewinder on the front). Think about how many times you need help getting OUT of a jamb rather than to pull yourself further into one or could use a winch to tug something on a car trailer…that is where the rear winch comes in handy. I do have a couple old WARN type bumpers lying around that I need to restore and want to get bolted on the K10 and Suburban someday.





Myers Horsepower, I really like how you reworked that old WARN bumper. Nice!
