It's the mount from PRG actually! I eventually plan to get the hefty aluminum front but that'll down the road a bit so I figured until then go this route!

I see that you had to trim the stock bumper a bit, was the install a pain?

Install was super easy, there's no real template for trimming but its not bad, I didn't do the extension kit for the winch power box to run under hood which is why I opted to drill a 2" hole , that hole allows me to plug in the remote control

Did you look at the Black Widow version of it when you were researching this style of winch mount?

Yea but I didn't want a template style mount that I had to weld together. This fit the bill for what I was looking for better than the other options.

Are you able to get to the lever to free spool, or will you just power the cable out?

I went and ran copper cache and backdoor out in nelson today. Things got a little gnarly on backdoor and almost laid it on its side. Copper cache was fun and quick. I'll run that one again.

We ended up doing copper cache saturday too. It went quick about 2.5 hours from railroad pass and back. Probably should have gotten the front struts installed before we went. Got a few small rubs on the front bumper but thats ok.

What time were you on the trail? We probably just missed each other.

We got there about 10:30. It went fast with just 2 vehicles

Yeah you were ahead of us, by an hour or so. We saw fresh tracks, we knew we weren't the first ones through that day.

I think we are going to go do some scouting in the Buffington Pockets area by Valley Of Fire on Sunday. It looks like there are some areas that could be developed for rock climbing. Any trucks want to come along. There are a bunch of trails in the area and mostly stock friendly.

Can you do dispersed camping, or just in campground? This place is on our list!

It is outside the park so dispersed camping is ok. Valley of Fire is so busy now that it's really hard to get a campsite. This is a good alternative if the park is full.

Myself and another OB member are planning a one or two nighter (depending upon work schedules) into Carpenter Canyon (southwest side of Mt Charleston). Hoping to leave Friday evening and forecast calls for possible rain or snow showers. Should be a good time as I am well prepared...

I'm looking to do a day run Saturday or Sunday over Memorial Day weekend. Anyone up to do something.

Hey, name is Erik, I also am in the Henderson area (pecos/215). I drive a 100series. Hope to see some of you out on the trail

Looks like we are headed to Mormon Wells Saturday afternoon to camp overnight. Hope to leave town by 3.

Plans are changing by the minute. Wife has to be in Kingman Sunday afternoon so we might just head to Hualapai mountain park.
