Winch Mounting?
So I bought me a nifty little Westin grille guard...<br><br>is it possible to mount a serious winch to the front of my truck and still keep the guard in an unmodified state?<br><br><br>by serious, im talkin about one that is able to haul the truck itself if need be.<br><br><br>I already found a winch for the rear, its one of those portable things that fits into the trailer hitch thing... (gotta love those people that speak in technical terms =P)<br><br>any ideas?<br><br>Oh yea, I would like it to look as clean as possible too, no ghetto mounting

Since you have one of those portable winch thingys for the rear...speaking in technical terms maybe a trailer hitch thing for the front too would work :P

Re:Winch Mounting?
I have a warn multi-mount system. The largest winch you can go with the multi-mount is a 9500 series. It will get you out empty, but it's pretty light for a loaded truck. I move my winch between my truck and jeep, and store it in the garage when I'm not using it. So it works pretty well for me, but it does stick out the front pretty far when it's mounted.
