Got my winch installed. Only had to cut some of the bumper mount tabs off and relocate the trans cooler lol but it's done. Who needs a pull?

Didn't effect the bumper but the inside lip of the bumper mounts on the frame had to be trimmed to fit the width of the winch and also had to relocate the trans cooler. Lemme know when you get yours and I will post pics of all of it so it will be easier on you

Oh they sent me some adjustment brackets for the 20" for free I just had to paint them. Also just get the regular dually lights for the stealth panels because I have the d2s and they just face the ground. I shoulda saved the money on duallys

Yeah I ended up canceling my order and then talking to them about building a rancher bumper for my truck but the total came out to be like 2600 and I can't afford that haha so I reordered with a 10% off coupon code from racedezert. I got a stealth winch with 40" top hoop, 20" in skid plate, and 2 dually mounts on each side making 4 total. It's gunna be a lot of light! Haha i ordered it bare tho so i can get it coated in line x. but ordered it 3 weeks ago and I'm just waiting now.

Yeah I'm thinking about getting ADD's venom chase rack to put a 50" on. And rigids are ridiculously expensive! It's gunna take a while to save up for all the damn lights haha.
