Will this SOS aluminum bumper handle a winch?

.

 

I have one on my ‘13. Mine is Line-X coated. And bent/cracked in multiple locations. Had I ground off the (hard but definitely softer than aluminum) coating on the mounting interfaces and added something like C4’s front bumper frame support brackets, it likely would have survived. It’s been through multiple recoveries and two deer. It would probably work if you don’t beat it all the time and use steel load distribution plates to prevent the aluminum from tearing.
