    Oh look, another mod....
    I love my body armor front bumper. I didn't install a winch (I don't wheel that hard) because they're expensive and also add weight. I found a steel framed license plate bracket on Amazon and mounted it over the opening for the winch. It also when I go through car washes (the plate doesn't get bent!)

    I have not....yet. But I have used my 12k winch a few times and it didn't move the bumper at all.

    Just as a heads up, if you plan on installing it yourself, watch some YouTube videos of what you have to do for each. Some are just bolt in, others require a bit of surgery from what I remember.

    Thanks - I watched a few and saw some of those required chopping into supports and not just the plastic. Not the biggest factor, but still a factor.

    I see that you didn't mention ADD. May be more than you want to spend or not want to cut up your truck, but I love my Honeybadger with a Warne EVO tucked inside. No regrets whatsoever...

    I like the SSO with the side wings and the CBI Covert without the bar. It was a tough choice, but I ended up ordering the CBI.

    CBI Covert requires cutting or trimming supports and cutting off the tiedown hook.
