auto transmition fluid cooler, aka the porqupine that sits behind the grill of autos, guessing it will need relacating to fit a winch as its right behind the plasctic grill.

Yeah did have one . Would prob get in way although I could make one deeper so it would sit out more or I could make one higher although you really want to be pulling around the dumirons .
I reckon mine will be ok.

Oh, I did not relise you were thinking of one ? Thought you just had a quiry ?
No probs, If you have the facilitys then its more satsfiying if you make bits yourself.
If you need any help let me know. I may get told off for this but heres a picture of one of my tubular ones. The winch version looks the same other than having a winch basket between the chassis rails.

Heres one of the winch version I am working on
