I want to install a hidden winch between the radiator and grill (warn m8274 the big boy). I took all my measurements and think i can do it if the transmission and oil cooler were relocated. Any advice? I know i would probably have to induce air to offset the blocked air from the winch. There really is no good way to mount the winch on the front other than a transformer bumper or some expensive custom front bumper....hopefully after this weekend i will have my 3" body lift installed.

 

Theres only one spot where they are 100% efficiant and that's directly in the center of your radiator. Hmmm, I don't think your model has the dual core Rad - well , just remember if you relocate , airflow comming @ is most important, as long as you maintain that, you should be okay..

On the other hand - how is that going to effect your engine cooling?

You might want to send a PM to Klitch or JMC that frequents these forums allot, they have these winches mounted .

Good Luck
