winch mounts
I might be getting a winch for my 94 bronco and i was wondering if anyone knew of a good front mounted winch mount that i wouldn't have to cut the bumper to instal. i also have a brush guard for the front but that can be cut and welded as needed to make them match.

winch mounts
Your frame horns have built-in crumple zones that are intentional weak spots. For a really strong mount, you need a replacement bumper. If you actually want the "grille guard" to guard your grille, it needs to be really strong, too. What you're asking for is just cosmetic stuff - poser. A winch mount that wraps around the factory bumper can't take as much use as a true winch bumper, and it puts the most expensive part (the winch) out front to get hit first when some moron whips out in front of you. Check RanchHand & Reunel for sturdy winch bumpers, or build your own.
