Albino's about to get busier with Abby's half sister Gail

Nice. Could you take a picture from the side so we can see how far it sticks out? I'm leaning more towards hidden between the frame rails for mine (if I ever get it).

Hmmm....(thinking smilie). thanks. Hopefully, I will get to start building my rear and front receiver hitches soon. I like the removable idea. :thumbsup:

I will have to do some reseach into winches and wiring in the fall. :D

Is the hitch behind the license plate? I didn't see it in this pic.
Actually it sits right under the air dam. I moved the liscense plate and bolted it onto a piece of wood that goes into the hitch. Dreamr has a Gen ll hidden hitch. It's right where his nose ring is.

What is that, about 8 - 10" out?
 












Ah, ok. Well it looks good! Let us know how that Mile Marker works and holds up. I do not want to dish out the moolah for Warn.
 






A buddy of mine has the same MM winch...it works pretty good for him. I will probably go with the same one. Josh, did you see the ebay link of the one he bought? It was only like $450 shipped.
 






Thanks for the pics. It does sit low. I wil have to look at the air dam/bumper and whatever is behind it on mine to see how to make it work out a little higher (if possible). I don't know whats back there or how much room there is.

$450 shipped is a good price. 4 wheel parts has the PE8000 for $499.99 w/ free shipping and a free PE2500. They also have the remote for $79.99.

Of course I spent the money I saved on wiring, snatch blocks and tree savers :rolleyes:
Brian, you can still get the hidden hitch for your truck. Try etrailer.com, that's where I got the carrier and handles.
 






Yeah, I'd probably do the 4WP deal and sell the ATV winch. Then get a universal mount. Is yours an 8000? Your ebay link doesn't work, I guess it's too old.
 






^^9000(look at his link)
 






WTF? Now it works. Ok, that is a pretty good deal.
 






I will look at the site, but unfortunately anything I get right now I have to build. Free is good with too many bills or too low of income. :)
 






I am curious to see this weekend how much cargo space that rig takes up. Just might be my next project. Just to keep you from getting ahead Phil ;)

Of course I should put the money into my axle, but ya know it makes a good garage ornament :rolleyes:
 






HMMM something looks different

:rolleyes:

You guys are quick, I wasn't done screwing around with the pic's

Look close. :D Josh has part of it :thumbsup:
 






Body lift and tow hooks! I want a cookie. :D Well, if that's right, of course. :p
 






Nah I haven't done the tow hooks yet.

Bumper brackets are a PITA
