I would also be interested in part numbers and/or measured drawings of the basic brackets and mounts. Also some close-up photos of one in place would be very useful.

dandecicco said:Yes yes! Much more detail. Can you take measurements and such for all of us. You plan looks very simple ye very effective.
Thanks
SV1CEC said:Ghost,
Thanks for the detailed info.
One question though. If you use a normal bumper (which is what I want to use), and a Ramsey REP8000, how one earth can you access the clutch of the winch? Can the winch be mounted upside down, in other words, can the winch tray be mounted above the winch?
Thanks friend.

This is the Driver's side bracket that I built. They are very heavy and beefy. I have tested them by snatching on one of our tractors that was stuck in the sand next to the office. So far they have not budged nor bent at all. however I have broken a few snatch straps that were rated at 20K lbs. Which is about what a light tractor weighs.Lawn Cher' said:Did you sleeve your frame? That tubing looks much beefier than the stock uni-frame rail... details please! Nice work, BTW.

John those are awesome links.

sportsguy said:Thanks Ghost - we're going to look at this option for my Comanche in a couple of weeks - I'm going to try to figure out a way to get a bigger winch to work, like a 9K - not sure what brand, but size will obviously be a factor. Not afraid to hack and rebuild to suit the project, but if it's simply not feasible, we'll just be boring and build a low profile bumper mount...
