Bodylifts, Bumpers and Winching...

[limey]

Hey guys,
I was wondering if any of you would share your experience with mounting aftermarket bumpers to compensate for your bodylift. What kind of bracketry did you use? Did you fab it yourself? I am most concerned about a brackets ability to handle winching on the front and towing at the rear. Thanks...

What vehicle do you have?

I have an ARB on my 2000 with a 2" BL. I simply drilled new holes in the frame to accomodate the BL. No problems and I've used the winch several times - both for self recovery and others as well.

What vehicle do you have?

It doesn't really matter what kind of vehicle he has, because this question applies to any vehicle that has aftermarket bumper options, as well as the ability to do a body lift. Seeing as this is in the Nissan section, I would guess either an older Pathfinder or Hardbody pickup, or a Frontier or Xterra. Whichever way though, it doesn't matter, as they are all very very similar underneath.

Sorry, I forgot to mention...an '01 Frontier. Thanks for the info!
