So far, every major producer of these have told me that they have no immediate plans for such a thing.
I was hoping that if we all started asking for it, that just perhaps someone would produce one more sooner than later but nobody seem too interested.

I'm DEFINITELY interested!!!!! I've emailed all the major manufacturers; TJM, ARB, RoadArmor, Aries, RockWare, etc. No hits so far. Everyone who's given me a reply has told me there isn't enough demand for one yet. Keep those inquiries rolling in. I'm about to have a nervous breakdown driving my H3 around Rapid City, SD...so many deer to hit! We need some protection for the frontend in the worst way. Huge engineering stumble by GM not putting at least a place to mount a winch.

Ok folks, RoadArmor tells me that they are "waiting on the files to develope this bumper" and that I should keep an eye on their web site for details.
Of course this could be a loose translation for "leave us alone" but we'll see.

Perhaps I will put the issue to rest:
For the first person to give me an actual design with drawings for an H3 winch bumper (or a winch mount):
1) I will have my steel fab shop in china manufacture it. Right now.
2) You will get the first bumper for free.
3) I will place the unit into production and then anyone can get one.
This offer is as real as it gets. If you are serious get in touch with me.
Shipbldr...

Shipbldr - You have any interest in making any accessories for an H2 Gobi stealth rack? I'm looking for a hi-lift jack mount that hangs off the side of the rack and doesn't add any height (when the jack is off).

Make a drawing. I'll have a protoype made. You tell me if it fits. If it fits, you keep it. If not, we change and try again.
My next 20' container leaves china in late October.
Were you thinking for a high-lift type jack? I think its a good idea. Are you thinking maybe hang it on the side?

My advice... Let's get the Gobi! If my experience with Gobi is any guide, its probably fully debugged and will get an A+ right out of the box.
Tim... please let me know when it's ready. I was literally about to go buy some channel stick and all-thread to go make a rack for the High-lift jack I got in this week.
I'd really like to get one from you guys instead of spending they day engineering something. I'll get my lights wired today instead.
Can you tell me how soon I can get it?
Charles

buy a warn multimount and wire it to the back of the truck.
use the 2" towing receiver to pull urself out of trouble. Once a front bumper comes out you'll already have the winch ready.

The tire is in the way without using an extension.
