Has anybody mounted a winch behind factory bumpers? If so can you share some pictures, interested installing front & back. I'm not a fan of the aftermarket bumpers.

warn sells front receiver hitch option-can also plug into rear hitch-best of both worlds and not adding weight and bulk

what year truck? warn has a hidden kit for up to the 2007 classic body style trucks. only problem is you need to go with the warn winches for it to work, and the ones that work with it are all over a grand.

might want to look into the westin max winch mount.

That's warn setup for the stock bumper is over $1000 for just the damn mount
fair lead would be badass slapped on the front of the stock bumper tho..I don't see there being enough room for a 9000k+ winch in there thought without a body lift.:gearjamin

theres really not, at least not without some serious fab work and the possibility of reducing airflow to the stack. the westin max mount is like 200 bucks, fits well, and doesnt look bad at all. and most important, its a big beefy bitch 1/4" plate with all metric equivalent grade 8 and higher hardware. and it doesnt really stick out that bad.

I was hoping to have winch behind bumper. I guess the only way would be with aftermarket bumper.

Yeah could do that, started to look at bumpers. Fusion makes a real nice bumper.
