Yes, I can make as many as you like. The foot forward mount is approx 1250 + shipping (based on steel prices, we can also make the front plate out of AR 500 or 600). It includes everything and is laser cut for accuracy. The kit has 4 new designed and thicker frame to bumper connector plates...

Here is a picture of the finished product using an small drum Series 18. Winch and fairlead are for 8" wide drum. The mounting plate and fairlead plate are attached to one another thru the bumper. We also changed the design of the atttachment plates so they are stronger and make adding a...

It still requires a bumper extension! I have had no luck getting a winch in without them :). The reason for the new plate is that the narrow drum winches do not pull from the bottom like the full drums did and have to be mounted feet forward. I had to make a heavier plate and attachments to...

I designed a plated for mounting to the 939 series bumper that is exactly like that. It is offset but I can change anything on the mount since I have the drawing and the laser :) I cut out of hardened 3/4" plate and use 12 bolts to fasten it to the frame and 6 bolts to fasten the out plate...

From what I heard, a M984 wreckers recovery winch was used to try and pull it out from the front. When it ripped the bumper off, they got a Unimog to dig it out from the rear and then used the M984 to drag it out from the rear. I have never seen a bumper rip like this. Needless to say a...

Check out what happened to this 5 ton! Peeled that bumper right off the frame pulling it by the shackles! Seems the passenger shackle pins did not sacrifice like the drivers side.

I have installed the RG31 bumper in the pics (upper) and Caiman bumpers (lower). I do make a 1/2" thick AR500 wrapping protection plate with fairlead cover that encloses the winch on the Caimans. I sell them to various swat departments that have the setup in the pic below. Several fell...

The biggest issue has always been the mounting plate / orientation based on the winch. If you pull from the bottom you can mount it flat. If it pulls from the top of the drum you have to mount it vertical. When going vertical the min stell thickness I use is 3/4 and also to protect the winch...

I have 3 different mounts now and I have 3 different MRAP bumpers I work with on 939's. I made a new mount that mounts to the rear of the bumper and ties to the frame via 3" angle iron to keep the winch from removing the bumper :). Anyway I have made the boxes on the original extension and it...

Looking good! It is about time I paint my truck!

I wish I had a nicer paint job on the truck but this is what the recessed fairlead looks like now. Very functional and I even covered the dent in the back of the truck. I put 2 pieces of reflective tape behind the lettering and it is hard to capture with flash!

I have an idea for mounting a front winch utilizing more of the existing space on the 939. It is not easy and will be somewhat time consuming. It may still require a very slight extension of around 2 inches to clear the bumper. I hate to cut bumpers! Anyway I would remove the hood support...

After playing dodge ball with the pentle hitch I decided to make an easier way to get the winch up and in place in the rear of the truck. You can move the winch back against the second cargo bed cross member. I am going to make the spacer 2" longer and add an additional hole so you can drill...

Yes it is an amp meter probe for over current. It only allows you to winch out if you overload to reduce tension on the winch cable. You cannot winch in until you reset the winch with the disconnect switch.

I have used 2 - 2x4's about 33" long to hold the winch as I jack the winch up one frame at a time. I just put the winch on the mount and keep it parallel to the frame. when you get high enough slide in a 2x4 and lower on it. Then raise the jack and do it again. It helps to have a helper to...

I mount directly over where you mounted on the very top channel under the bed. The winch turns upside down. The mounting plate goes against the cross member just under the actual bed floor. It is not easy to get it there I know. It is as high as I could put it to keep it safe and snug. I use a...

Are you missing the current overload ring for your winch? Call me tomorrow and we will get you going!

There is about 1/64" between the fairlead and the fully dropped tailgate! I had a dent in the bottom of the frame that caused me to set the fairlead frame to the top of the cross member inside. Since it works about 1/4" above center I am just centering the cover plate. I will make the cover...

Well I got the rear fairlead installed on a 923A2 today. I am cutting some more stuff for the rear kit. I am making a cover plate and some star washers that will make it look cool with our new DBA "Militia Engineering" Here is the drawing for the Stars and Cover plate. The cover plate is...

I don't trust cardboard boxes with heavy goodies inside!
