Stand on a tow hook, have a friend stand on the other, have another friend standing by with a tape measure.

I have the 16.5ti/trans4mer combo on my truck and there is a difference but it is not that much. Check it out in my gallery

I do not think it will drop the front end muc at all. If it does, I would be surprised if it is noticeable. That winch wieghs 120# tops. Floorshow's suggestion is a good one. You might have your girlfiend or wife stand on it though if you want and accurate check.

To check out markethopper's gallery, point the mouse over his name (upper left hand of post) then left click. A menu will drop down. Select, "View Gallery" .

Curious if you intend to do a hidden mount or whether you intend to mount on a bracket that inserts into a front receiver?
