Push bar & Winch

Hi,

I have a '04' Dodge dually Cummins and want to install a push bar with a strong winch on the front, but of the push bar selections I've seen so far they are way too gaudy, and require you destroy the bumper and/or the top cover. When we log into this site there's a photo of a blue dually with a nice looking push bar... anyone got any suggestions of a nice looking set-up similar to that one that can hold a strong winch... preferrably Warn? Thanks.

FYI most winches have the same mounting bolt pattern. I have a MileMarker 12,000lb hydraulic winch from my Jeepin' days I'm going to mount pretty soon.

those push bars are usually just good looking. They often are only mounted with four sissy bolts and the pipe is really thin. If you want to install a winch I would recommend a replacement bumper. I have asked santa for one fron ranchhand and will hopefully be putting it on while I'm wasting time during the holiday

Ranchhand, Road Armor and I think another one... offer some big bumper replacements for winches. Road Armor makes a smaller one for a winch that it pretty much just a bumper replacement whereas the others is a replacement as well as a grille guard.
