Re: Which Bumper Winch is the Best
As far as I can tell, the DRTY bumper is much like a Unicorn  . Its been written about for years but no one's ever been able to prove they actually exist. 
For all the accolades and apparent demand, I don't believe it has ever been commercially available??
The new H2O guy stuff looks very promising. I need a rear bumper solution.

Re: Which Bumper Winch is the Best
H2 Bully, don't forget to check into Mile Marker winches. I have a Warn simply because I got it from someone that didn't need it anymore.
And, why hasn't anyone mentioned the hydraulic winch? Aren't they supposed to run if the car won't start, or has stalled? (I realize this wouldn't be a usual issue with a brand new H2, but I thought I'd bring it up.)

Thank you, I was just looking at the Mile Marker website. Looks like the hydraulic would run under water. And the 9000 lb hydraulic is 93 lbs shipped. The 12000 lb winch is a whole 98 lbs. That's heavy, but if it's in the bumper she wouldn't ever have to lift it.

Re: Which Bumper Winch is the Best
Does T-Max make a multi mount winch that will fit our trucks? I saw Lotus4's t-max at tellico and it was sweet. All I've herad is good things about these.
