I have the DAP mount. The site isn't great - but those dudes are great on the phone. Had mine ordered and shipped in no time. Mine is holding a 12K promark offroad silverback. The winch and mount together are HEAVY... have a jack handy to help mount!

I can get some pics later today/tomorrow but it's pretty straightforward.

 

how long are the end L brackets since that is all I need

 

I emailed DAP and they wanted $195+shipping for their discrete mount. Ouch. That's 1/4 of the way to a T4x4 front bumper.

 

wow the center part is just a univeral winch bracket right? those are $50 so those are some expensive end L brackets

 

Yeah. If I had any welding capability or skill I'd make one myself, but since I don't I'll just wait and buy a bumper. Wish there was a cheaper option...can't see myself spending more than $100 on it.

 

I'll take mine off (trashed my winch anyway) this weekend. Maybe I can get my metal buddy to give me a quote on a replica. Honestly, it LOOKS like an easy build; but I'm only a metal music guy.

 

well I have a brand new 12k winch with the mounting plate and roller sitting here and all I need to do is fab the ends for the frame, i have some 5" angle sitting here and it is heavy enough just want to see how tall their ends are since I would like to reinstal the stock bumper for now and have the winch cable out the bottom, it would save some figurin for if I need a bigger piece of angle iron

 

Ordered my winch plate and winch today from Justin at Lucky8. Planned on doing my first write-up for the peep on this site. Look for it soon

 

Yelah: Any info on the winch plate? Mfg/cost?

 

i have the descrete setup for 6" drop I made with winch mount plate in my thread I can sell if someone is interested pm me
