    Yep...you're right...they sent you the wrong ones. I'm running without them for the moment until I can figure out how to fit this winch.

    Slimline owners w/ winches....have any of you been able to cram a Warn Zeon in there without removing the solenoid??? I'm having a heck of a time with it.

    Ok I updated my thread with a few tricks to squeeze a 10k Zeon winch with top mounted solenoid in...

    Well....I laughed, I cried, I swore occasionally....but I'm happy to report that I finally got my SSO slimline installed alongside a Warn Zeon 10-S and a Rigid SR-20. Big thanks to @Kennedyusmc who gave me the courage to chop off some extra parts to make my winch choice fit.

    Now just waiting for my Factor 55 Flatlink-E to show up so I can take off the stock hook.

    Yeah....I did it first since I didn't want to deal with getting it seated in the spool after it was all tucked away in the bumper. I used the needle-nose pliers/wire wrap technique to get it in there, but you may want to apply a little grease to get it through.

    I was initially worried there might be some clearance issues between the line and the radiator bits behind the winch, but even with the loose spool I've got on there now, it's still fitting with an extra half inch or so to spare. I still need to go out today and pre-tension.

    damn loving the look of this front bumper. nice and sleek, definitely gotta add it to my wishlist.

    can you run this front bumper + hoop, no winch on stock suspension?

    I think you'll be fine. Several folks have installed it (even with a winch) on stock and haven't had any issues. See @friendlywithbears previous post in this thread.

    I expect a little sag after this, dual battery and aluminum skids.
    I'll shore it up with toytec 1/2in leveling spacer.

    Can anyone clarify how they worked in a Zeon 10-S with either a remote solenoid mount or triming? I have everything ready to go in but I'm hesitant to get into it without a plan for the winch knowing it's not straightforward.

    See my post- 424. There's a link there.
    You have to cut the center crossbar out:
