Interested what people have but from what I’ve seen they push the bumper rediculously far out (the warn kit anyway )

it does push it way out. I found a Westin HDX winch Mount for $599 (usually $899 if I remember) on eBay. I had a hidden mount in my F-150, just assumed they were available for the super duty....apparently not though.

With some of these hidden winch kits you might want to make sure they've actually tested it on a truck with the diesel engine. The diesel has an oil cooler and lines that may sit where the company is trying to put the hitch. I had that problem with a front receiver hitch.

thanks, doug

They look terrible, we have them on fleet trucks. The bumper is 4 inches further than stock. Looks terrible but on a fleet truck its perfect. On a personal vehicle get a winch bumper.

That's what I figured. I was trying to avoid the cost of a bumper and added weight to the front end. I already have a winch from another vehicle that I didnt use. Greatly appreciate your opinion.
Thanks, Doug
