any tubular bumpers with a reciver for a winch?

[Mike1331]

So i ripped off my tubular bumper this weekend while on the rubicon. I want to build a tubular pre-runner bumper with a 3" receiver built in to mount a winch when i need a pull, otherwise i'll store it in the back or leave it home. Has anyone built this type of set up? If so post it up.

edit, i'm looking for front bumper set ups. But if you wan't to post pics of your rear tubular bumper set up to recieve a winch feel free to do that to.

yeah that bottom one would be ideal, wish i could see more pics of it and how its tied in. Thanks that gives me a couple ideas.

its just 3 bolts its good for looks, but i wouldn't recommend unless you had some skilled to give it some beef

so has nobody built a tubular bumper with a solid receiver set up built in?

Go fast guys don't use winches. We really don't need a front receiver hitch. It can be done pretty easy but it looks like ass. I can show you how my rear tube bumper ties in a reciever hitch. Its pulled a 26ft toyhauler so its sturdy.

Yes i understand that, i'm in norcal and like to have it all (crawl, fast, snow bonzin, snonzin...giddiup) and was just looking for ideas. Tubulars are sexy, so are retractable winches. Time to get to the drawing board.
