Installed a Winch today . I wanted it to look stock so i made it to sit in close enough so as to try wrpping the plastic around it.
The winch is my New Sabre XD 10.000lb. I really like the fast speed on this Winch @94fpm it is really handy

I am not going to make them , But i am talking to a local Fab shop and i am willing to work with them for a Bolt on kit , i have told them i will advertise it on my site .I also need to figure out a attacment point for a skid plate to protect the Rad.That is pretty straightforward and i need to have fairly exact measurements for trimming the plastic to make it a simple install. You also need to get 2 Frontbumper bolts because the brackets i made attach to the 2 holes at the front and also on the bottom . The recovery hook side is no problem as there are 4 bolts on that side. with the Sabre Winches i also have control box extensions that you can mount in the face of the Bumper.
If i have time some day next week i will knock together some sliders .
My idea for this is to have the fab guys come up with skids , mounts, sliders, Rear Bumper , Tire mount.
I do not think at this time a full bumper is something that would sell here in Canada , but i may decide to invest in some design and spend the money to have it laser cut ready to fab up. any other way is to labour intensive to make it a reasonable price
cheers

There are a lot of 2nd gen guys who would love a canadian supplier of this stuff. I desperately need skids but the americam stuff is too pricey with shipping etc.

And I'd buy a bolt on winch mount and winch in a hearetbeat (provided I had the dough obviously)
