Portable winch mount build
I have been looking for a way to mount my winch on the front of my truck. I really liked Ironmans winch setup but it was not easily removable. So I kind of stole from the parts in his picture to see what happens. So far have made the trip to the metal yard here. Bought 3/8 plate and 3X5 inch square tube had a couple pieces 1X2 laying around so I am commited to about 70.00 in parts. My son is a welder or at least has a welder so how much damage could we do. So we are at the mock it up stage also the drop it on your foot stage cuss over busted knuckles and notice it gets really cold as the sun goes down stage. Today we did not set anything on fire and did not need stitches so I would say ita a win. I have attached a couple pictures of what we have so far.
Any ideas (constructive) would be great...
