I just installed a Warn on mine. I always liked the look of them, and also thought they were kind of pricy myself for what they are, but ended up getting a good used one for cheap.

thanks for the pics thats sharp I like the look.

I also like that plate mount where did you find it ?

incredible.......I just sent a e-mail to AtoZ fab tonight asking about that bumper. I've had a WARN in the past and I'm considering the crown automotive now.

I had the plate material laying around the garage, so fabbed it myself. The clips I used are for the Maglite flashlights. They fit the rollers perfectly. Those were also sitting in the garage for a few years.

After getting the bumper and winch installed, I realized I still needed my plate somewhere. Didn't feel like drilling a couple holes into the bumper. So I came up with this.

good luck i would go with ATOZ personally esp their rear tire carrier 400 bucks pluss free shipping MAN that is a steal!!!!!!

Thats a cool idea I'll be looking around the shop to see what I can come up with.

Well i went with the warn front and rear finish installing tomorrow, that rear bumper is a real pita, after I finish I'll get some pics.

On my Unlimited it was actually quite easy. I have a little more room back there than you did. Did you do anything with the brake light? Here's what I did.

I'll be ordering the Crown from A to Z on Monday. It's been said Crown makes them for WARN minus the "W" in the corners. I know they ship with the same mounting instructions.

have you considered the "frame built front bumper" from metalcloak? I run it on the LJ in my sig and really like the idea that you can mod it as your rig develops...i know its not for everyone but i absolutely love it
