[QUOTE="wrecker1, post: 906890, member: 16460"] On this Jeep, [IMG]http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b239/packrat169/74%20CJ%205/NEWPICS037.jpg[/IMG] the front crossmember is covering the power steering box. Anyone see a problem with removing that cheep bumper and mounting a winch plate [I]in front of [/I]the crossmember, [I]and inside[/I] the frame ears. Basically sink it into the frame in front of the crossmember. What I am thinking is that the winch will block less of the radiator, keeping the truck cooler. The problem I see is it will stick out the front farther than I like. Of course a new bumper will be in order. On that topic, how far must a bumper be extended out from the frame? to the center of the tires? I'm thinking 12" from the frame, and allowing room for the tires to turn. thoughts? ideas? pics?
