I doubt I will be getting custom bumpers so, Ive been thinking about getting a winch. I have an 03 renny and I thought I seen someone where with the stock bumper and a winch. There is a open space in between the front two tow hooks.
Has it been done? & how? I'd like some instructions :twisted:
Thanks

I was looking at the install. I am correct to assume that the backbone replaces the front tow hook?

You can click on the images to get a bigger one, and I can take new pictures if you want, I'm going to change the install as part of the "master plan" for the liberty looks :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: .
