Hidden winches
I think I saw a thread on this but can't find it using the search.
I'm looking for photos of winches hidden behind the factory bumper on '72 Blazer. I picked up a paintable bumper and it sure looks like there is room for a winch behind it and a fold down front license plate to hide it. Anyone done that? |
Re: Hidden winches
Mine on my 71 but it's the same bumper on a 72.

Different mounting set up than BobbyK's but I've done it too.

55watt "driving " lights.
Hella is the brand. Got them at a local truck accessories store. Prob. easy to find on E-Bay. I had to fab up some mounting brackets but that was super simple. |
