Thinking of installing a discreet winch behind stock bumper
Jupiter Rover,
They may be closed, Email him regarding your interest and he should give you his number where he can be reached. He emailed me back the same day a few weeks ago and the number i called in the email worked. (its not the one on the website)
I talked to Todd and Disco Mike on the phone two days ago and then ordered it. This is all you need. Then you just need to fabricate a handle or buy the shifter linkage assembly...i wont be installing my CDL kit for another month, im waiting for my Ujoint tool and slide hammer to arrive so i can rebuild my front d/s and then at that time swap the front output housing.
Read Urban Panzer's write up on adding the linkage to a lockable transfer case and he address the ECU issue on 03's+ on step 21. (Thanks Urban Panzer) AWESOME SITE!!
I know my transfer case is in great shape so adding this to it gives me more peace of mind than buying a complete case. and saves me $$$$..

Awesome! thanks for letting me know. I'm glad someone has first hand experience with this company and their product. That is a Great price.
I just checked my email and he emailed me. If everything goes right I will be ordering one this week. I have been dying for a CDL.

Quick suggestion about how low the discreet winch is... if you are going into mud that will be covering the winch and you think you may get stuck, attach the winch hook to your roof rack or luggage bars so you don't have to fish around for it. Just a tip I picked up somewhere.
on our latest trip xb70valkarye's under bumper mounted winch was a god-sent to us stupid winch-less wheelers. it worked great, tended to stay out of the way (although not nearly as well as a normally mounted winch would have done). fred did, however, need to do some trail-side bumper modifications because the plastic pieces on his rover were less strong than the rocks we were on.
verdict: they work pretty well, the look pretty good, but you need to be ok with taking a pocket knife to the plastic trim pieces on your rover.
