    Don't remember exactly but I YouTube'd sdhq winch mount and found one scrolling through. Was a white Tacoma if memory serves me correctly

    All done. Warn VR 8s fit perfectly. I did use the control box relocation kit. Install was fairly easy. Took 5 hours.

    Did you have to cut any metal to fit the winch?

    That’s the 1.0 - the 1.5 would work also, but the 1.0 sits perfectly. SDHQ also used the 1.0 in their install.

    Your truck is looking great! Congrats on the successful install. My truck is at SDHQ having the hidden winch mount installed. I am impatiently waiting. Thank you for posting this to help me get through the wait.

    Thanks, man. I am sure it will be done quickly. They are doing a couple of other upgrades while its over there, so I expected the added time.

    I am pretty attached to that little truck, so when it is gone I get a little bummed out.

    Hopefully you are just in for routine maintenance or something fun, man.

    Eh, some warranty work. But they gave me a 4runner to drive so not all bad.


    What else are you having them do???

    They are mounting an ARB twin compressor in the cubby of the bed and they are putting in my Amber S8 in the "Behind-the-grille" mount, since it will be easily accessible. I setup the mount already, but since they were going to be in there, I didn't want there to be a possibility of the light getting in their way.

    I am sure that 4Runner is fun, my little brother just got one. My loaner is lifted E series Van.
