Just got a 10000 lbs winch. I'm now trying to figure out the best way to mount, without having to replace too many parts - I'd like the custom front or rear bumper which houses a winch, but this is too expensive for me.
So, how and where is the best place to mount this? I've seen winches mounted onto flat winch receivers, and then the winch is portable and can be moved easily to both front and back hitch. I like this method, but not sure how strong the pin holding the receiver to hitch is? Can these pins actually withstand the weight on the H2 is it is really stuck and the winch is truly pulling its full 10000 pounds on pressure on the pin?
Ay advice would be appreciated.
Denise, you still around? Haven't heard from you for a while. I want to go wheeling, especially now that I have my new winch.
