Man sized winch/bumper??

Looking for pics of any of you guys that have a "large" front bumper with winch AND any man sized rear bumpers??

I could get a factory bumper but they look to wimpy and I want something functional. I gotta have a winch on the front....and the rear has gotta be a big bugger that means business like the front.

Out of the pics that come up during this thread, what kind of fabricating did you guys have to do to get it to mount??? Both front and rear.

This bumper was already on the truck when I bought it.The front of the bumper is 13.5" away from the grill.800lb. Warn winch.
It's big enough for me to stand on comfortably to work under the hood.

Back in the early 80's I saw a guy that had a winch in the front bumper and two in the rear. He could winch his truck across a crevass in the air.

If you mounted your winch to a hitch mounted carrier, you could use it front or rear. You just weld a receiver into each bumper. You would just have to run some power to the rear, and add a quick disconnect for the lead. Heres my front, and there's a matching rear. Really simple, and really effective.
