When you get stuck with no other vehicles around, winching from the rear will be needed about 50% of the time. I plan on rigging up something to allow me to winch from the rear using my front winch bumper. I am thinking to have roller fairlead up front and some standard fairleads underneath and flush mounted from front to rear.

Boy, after reading that, I think I'm just going to stick with my Warn 9.5ti multimount. I've also needed my winch in the rear to get out of a bad situation a couple of times (I think 50% of the time is more than I've seen in my experience), that ability made me real happy on those occasions.
I've been agonizing for a couple of weeks whether or not to score one of those autostrata ebay Boulder winch bumpers, but I guess I'm going to pass. I'm thinking of putting those dollars into the Rubber Duck under body protection instead.
