FYI for all, I was today years old when I learned you have to buy the 6000 lb winch since the 4500 lb one is not compatible with the HD Bumper.....I think.....anyone know?
This is mine with the stock 4500# winch.FYI for all, I was today years old when I learned you have to buy the 6000 lb winch since the 4500 lb one is not compatible with the HD Bumper.....I think.....anyone know?
I’ve never seen or been in the situation that’d require the bigger winch. The Xpedition loaded completely out won’t ever hit even 4000# so I’m fine with the stock winch.That bumper is definitely my next purchase. Thanks for the input cause the OP just turned me inside out for a second there
I have no intentions on upgrading to the 6000# winch, but I gotta ask is there really any reason to do so? Sure situation dictates, but what situation could occur that the 6000 will save ya and the 4500 won't?
100%, I did wish they had a plate to clean up the holes around the opening. I guess the bumper is meant to run the winch at the higher location and be exposed but it works fine in the stock location. Either way, no issues here.It would be a rather extreme angle before it would rub on the bumper. The only situation where I could see that happening would be self-recovery, and I don’t think it would be enough to damage the rope.
So what are the rectangle holes on each side for? I didn’t notice them at first. Any useful purpose?100%, I did wish they had a plate to clean up the holes around the opening.

The upper cover, for when you keep the stock winch, bolts in from the sides. The vertical slots allow access for those bolts.So what are the rectangle holes on each side for? I didn’t notice them at first. Any useful purpose?
