Custom Winch Mount

I need a winch mount for my custom front bumper. I didn't want to attach it to the bumper because of the extra weight that far out. Looked at the frame and noticed the holes for the tow hooks. Took some measurement and this is what I made. All made with 1/4 plate and 10.9 grade wheel studs. The wheel studs are pressed into a small piece of 1/4 then dropped threw the holes in the frame. All the steel was coated with truck led linear.

Why is my tread not showing? Is it because of the edit for the pictures?

It's showing now. It was stopped by the site spam filter. That happens when someone post several pics in their first 2 or 3 posts. It was reviewed and released. Thanks for posting.
