Well... I'm getting ready to build a '90 with all kinds of goodies and want to stiffen the frame, add a winch, and move the front wheels forward. This seems like a good solution

If you don't have a body lift, how much trimming is required for the grill?
That does it all. How far forward do you want to move your axle? Keep in mind with 52s it doesnt really move all that far.
I got it pretty good with 47" long springs.

Depends on the winch.
Iirc, it's not intended for folks to trim their grille but if you run something like a Warn 8274 you just have to suffer to big overhang. I had mine custom built for the winch (8274) to be recessed in about 2" off of the core support.

I’m curious about winch failure on the trail, or any other repair they may be needed. That’s the only thing I wouldn’t know what to do with. To remove that bumper you lose your front hangers...
Winch can be removed with the bumper in place.
I put an m12000. It ain't coming out lol.
I did ask for the tightest fit I could get though.

Ah so there’s enough room to pull it out with the grill removed? Nice!
It can’t drop out the bottom? My 12k will....
I am but a wee man. Winch weighs about as much as I do. Dont really members but if it does that would be helpful.
Maybe....definitely easier to drop it out the bottom.
It should be able to.
My 8274 will come out with the grille removed, probably need 2 people though.
