Integrated or not winch with Hiline Series Bumper

I have decided on the Body Armor Hiline Series Winch bumper. Do I need to do a none integrated winch or not. Would love to see pictures if you guys have them.

 

I love my hiline. I got the Smittybilt winch for in. Ran a in cab line too

 

Looks Good!

 

looks like you are running a lower bumper hidden light bar. Assume it's a 32" bar but is it a single row or dual row bar? Hoping my dual row Caliraised bar will still have clearance with this bumper and a Smittybuilt X20 Comp winch. Any feedback is appreciated.

 

Easy install, clean look. Smittybuilt X20 synthetic line winch installed.

 

Having just put on a BA bumper, I would think that IF you run a light bar, an integrated winch will be a real squeeze. There isn't a lot of room in there for all that. I left the light bar out as I wanted to be able to see/touch the winch if needed without removing the bumper. Sometimes you need to lay hands on things. Plus a non-int can mount the control box up high and out of the water should it come to that, a real plus in my book.

 

I got one too. Also did a Smittybilt X20 winch and a 22" LED light bar. All fit fine for me. Just move the control box to the passenger side and you'll be good.

 

So did you leave the control box on the winch in addition to the light bar? I'm surprised it would all fit.

 

Control box to passenger side. I fit a 32" light bar (I think that's the max size you can put in the BA) snug but no issues. I've run the winch and lights a few times since install and all is working well.

 

Yep, the winch manual should show you some different mounting options. I just basically flipped it to the passenger side. The light bar sits further in the bumper so there's more room than you think. It's also tons easier if you mount everything to the bumper before you put it on the truck.

A quick photo chop and this is basically what mine looks like from the inside/backside.

 

I hope this helps. It’s kind of hard to get a good photo of how much space is left.

 

Awesome - thank you both for those photos. That explains it all.

 

looks like my dual row hidden light bar will fit based on your picture. Not using the light bar cutout in the bumper looks like it provides good access to the winch as a bonus.Thanks for your help, much appreciated!

 

Large winch, dual row light bar. All fits perfectly.

My winch is a Warn Zeon 10-S, I did not move the control pack since I can access everything from the top when the hood is open.
