    So this is what I'm looking at. Not awful, but a good chunk of the lower lip is gonna be gone entirely.

    Gonna get another beer and start cutting.

    Wow that's a lot. How tall is the winch? From mounting surface to the top of the winch?

    Option B just occurred to me.

    I could move the entire bumper down 1" by drilling new holes in the crossmember. Basically, that moves the bumper back to the 'no body lift' position, as opposed to having it move up with the body.

    Then I think I'd only have to trim most of the lower lip, and then only across about a foot of length. Better than hacking off that same length entirely.

    Hmm...

    Approach angle vs cutting a grill.

    Why are you even debating this.


    Get to cutting. :sawzall:

    Thanks!

    I did lower the bumper. Lots of benefits with very little cost.

    I do have to grind down the bolts for the fairlead or grab a couple shorter ones. Otherwise the winch can't sit far enough forward to use the mounting holes in the bumper. Shouldn't be too big of a deal.
