    I'm looking to purchase a new front bumper and really like the price of the ARB Bull Bar Bumper. I was hoping one of you guy/gals have this and can tell me the measurement for the height that's available for a winch. I already have a winch and want to see if it will fit. I can't relocate the control box. Right now i have a Body Armor bumper and it has about 9 1/2 inches of height for the winch to mount.

    Thanks in advance!

    Do you mean inside the bumper, behind the license plate? I have that bumper on my 2013 but have never tried to mount a winch in there, it's about 10.5" of clearance vertically as I recall.

    Thanks. When you get a chance could you measure how much space between the front and the radiator?

    Looks like the clearance between the front radiator support and the flange behind the winch cable opening is about 9.5". Maybe this thread will motivate me to actually get a winch, never been stuck to the point where I've needed it but I've used a recovery strap plenty of times to pull things out of ditches. =)
