Bull Bar with Hidden Winch Mount
Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes a bull bar (similiar to the Westin -style) with a hidden winch mount? I'm going to have a fabricator make me one as I have been unable to locate one myself, but I thought I'd ask you all, just in case I missed it somewhere in my searching the net.

This is a very old post, but I am looking for the same thing for my 2011. The winch mount doesn't necessarily need to be hidden. I just want a bull bar that has a winch mount rather than a full brush guard.

I have not seen one, You will probably have to have one made.
Every bull bar I have seen on the market for these trucks uses relatively thin angle iron for a mounting bracket to where the factory tow hooks bolt.......
The simply aren't built strong enough for a winch mount.
There are some pretty cool replacement front bumpers with a winch mount, but that is personal preference and twice the money.
