yah i like the way dremu has that setup

Well, can't take too much credit for it ... it's a Ramsey kit from 1980ish, their Hidden Winch setup. But yeah, it came out well ... better pic below. I'm gonna be hard-pressed to do that as nicely when I do up some thicker bumpers... might move this one to my CUCV and get an 8274 for this truck or something ::shrug::

Well, if you can find the right winch, or if you're clever with a chopsaw ... no welding required ... the stuff to make the mount is all angle iron and flat stock, easy to do. I even have CAD drawings of the the parts (I was bored one winter =))

Check out http://brochures.slosh.com/index.shtml?blazer and go to "Ramsey Hidden Winch".
