Just wandering if anyone has tried this out or what are your thoughts about it on your vehicle?

pros= portable, front or back, but will either hang low or require skilled cutting of impact bumper to fit...
cons= mounts tend to have a little play, but also when you bury the front end in mud, its too late...
for the price I would go with a CB photo winch plate and Ridgedemon frame supports, both excellent designs and well made!

CB Photo style winch plate. Sandwiches between the tow hook brackets and the frame. No additional hardware needed.
My brushguard is separate too and uses the same mounting holes.

X3 on the CBphoto Winch Mount!

I know him personally and there hasn't been a single complaint. He has shipped them to Canada, and several over sees as well as many in the US of A.

Great product made by a fellow HUMMER owner!

Question to Bunger, what lights did you run on your roof rack? I'm getting the same one and looking for some low profile lights. Also, how did you run your lights to the pillar?

The lights are Hella FF75 series. They come in Fog or Driving types. Shop around, prices vary a lot. Best deal was thru Amazon.com

Wiring is run thru black wire loom and black wire ties to the drivers's side A-pillar then down into the engine compartment. Can't get pics right now because it's covered with snow.
