Warn front bumper vs Front Receiver/ cradle - 9/4/2007 9:17:21 AM

Does anyone have a Warn Front bumper? I am taking delivery in a few days on an H2 with an 8000# front receiver mounted winch (w/ cradle) and am already interested in changing it a bit. And I don't even have it in my driveway. Sad, yes...

At any rate- I can only find the stock details and the stock photo on the lower winch bumper. Looks as if it allows use of stock tow hooks and of course winch access but I am looking for some info from 'real people' - anyone out there have one? Have any thoughts or pictures?

don't get a winch bumper, just keep the winch sitting up front for looks, or in the back if you don't want it stolen/banged up in normal driving.

then use front AND back winch options, which is totally handy and cool. I would think it has to affect approach angle, it has to cover a winch where there was previously none. With the winch up front, my truck loses enough approach angle to constantly annoy me when 'wheeling
