Front Winch Mount?

[vt_maverick]

...don't forget the entire bottom half of the front cladding gets cut straight off all the way across to make room for the Winch bumper!!!!!

I thought all you had to cut was the template area around the license plate holder? Doesn't look like you cut the entire bottom of your front cladding in this pic:

So, my VX lot collection of parts and stuff over 9 years is for sale.
Contact me ($2500 takes all).

So what exactly is left? I was going to put it into a cleaner list for you but I couldn't find what you have left in the posts above.

Good to hear from you SPAZZ!

In the pic posted, that was for mock up and we noticed that with my diamond plate skidplate that the winch bumper bottom plate would not mount up to the bottom yow hook holes.
Also, the down bars to bottom plate were interfering
With the cladding and the VX breathing/overheating.

so we trimmed the cladding all the way across from one side to another where that bottom bulge if different than thefront side.
Much better.

Oh okay I get it, that's a damn fine mock-up btw. So this is with it actually installed right?



Do you think you'd have to trim it if you didn't have Tone's skid plate?

Yeah I did this years ago, I only sold like 3 or 4 of them....here is pics.

Sorry, I never saw your receiver kit before.
So do you still have any? How much did you want?
How much "tongue weight" could you mount?

BigMeat hasn't logged on for a month, and his VX is for sale, not sure if he's going to be checking the forum any more...maybe try sending an email.

So the only guy who has put a manual tranny in a VX is leaving
