if you have a grill guard then just mount the winch on the grill guard and as long as you don't run it constantly then you don't need to worry about an extra fan

yeah i was thinkin about that but i dont want to let every one know i got one and i dont want to take it off and put it back on all the time. if i put it behined the bumper all the'll be able to see is the hook and some wire, if i dont just put it on the part of the towhook behined the valace.

Yeah let me know, I'm thinking that synthetic rope on the winch would help out.
