A word of advise for when you get your next winch is to put a couple of blobs of weld on the mounting bolts of the winch to bumper and on the bumper to chassy mounts as it it makes it a lot harder to steal without drawing attention to themselves with a grinder at 2 in the morning.
Look at it from the theives view is that unprotected its 4 bolts and some wirecutters .....easy money and easy to sell.



Keep your eye on ebay for the next month or so, you never know.
