David Allen (of david allen racing) has a sweet looking setup. He just removed the center piece of the bumper, leaving the outer pieces and put the winch in the middile. It looks sweet.

Not a stock bumper, and not a very clean install, but here's mine:



and a page I made up describing how I did it:

Thanks, I'm glad you liked how I have mine mounted. It gives it a nice clean look and doesn't stick out to far as to take away approach angles.

They are a mix match of leaves. I believe that they are around 7.5" of total lift. They started as custom 6" springs from about 15 years ago. They then progressed through several rebuilds and upgrades to end up where they are now. The remarkable thing is that for such arched springs, they ride fairly decent and flex really well.
