well if you get a chance you should post up more pictures of how it is mounted. is it just two bolts on each side. and maybe some pictures from farther away. the reason im asking so many questions is because i like the simplicity of the design and the fact that your using the smitty. (in the summer i plan to be doing a custom bumper with the same winch.)

That is jaw dropping.
Very nice setup.

Yes, let everyone know how the new Smitty winch works too.
Have read about them on the forum here a bit.

used the winch today, worked awsome, but we are only talking about a 3500lb truck, and it is an 8000lb winch, but it did get me out of a tight spot, put alot of scratches in the truck today also
