how is the winch plate mounted???
and i wouldn't trust those hooks on the rear bumper too much....not to mention they will hangup pretty easily on the trails...
otherwise, nice winch

its just that putting the stress from extracting a truck can easily overpower the little plate ya welded your rear hooks to is all....
and when it fails, it will make one hell of a projectile.......be extremely cautious when using them....
as for the winch plate, hope ya used alot more than a few plug and stitch welds.....
just my opinion, but have seen first hand what that kind of mounting can and will do......
just want you and everyone ya with to be safe

id get some 1/4 braces on the front to pull the whole length of the front of the bumper...it will probably bend the top foreward
looks good just needs some more bracing you go through 4,000 plus LB's up there and youll see what im talking about...same on the back stock bumper isnt going to hold much at all
