Couldn't really see the winch in the picture to well. How long did it take to install? On the H1 the trucks with winches have heavier duty springs. Did you have to do anything besides installing the winch?

Sorry, small file.  No, I just leveled the truck..

I'm looking at getting a winch can you post a bigger picture?

Looks good from FAR!!!

This is the winch, but I didn't pay this much.  I'll shoot some more shots tomorrow.  Been busy with a fire.

Nice set up.  A friend of mine put a lot of work into helping me go the home made route and build a winch mount.  Came out nice and came in handly at the latest snow run a few weeks ago.  Just need to do some clean up with the power wires and a few other things now.

That's the winch I want!  I like how it's tucked into the frame rails keeping the approach angles stock.  Also this keeps the weight moved rearward thus keeping the stress off the T-Bars.  Winches are heavy and the further they're moved forward the more the T-Bars have to compensate for the weight.
 
GREAT WINCH but $$$$$$$

Yes, I used it to pull out fence posts last week.

Looks GREAT! Where'd you get it? Does it effect cooling at all?

Thanks.  It replaces the center bumper part, doesn't effect cooling.  I bought it from:
