Nice, very nice! of course you guys would break this one out the day i order my ARB after a year of looking for a used one. I like that nice minimalistic approach, although id still want a winch up front.

edit: looking again it seems you could place the winch box low ( like _/ in profile ) and plate from that existing crossmember piece up to the first tube, main crossbar, in prototype. This looks to be enough depth for winch and surface area for a fairlead/hawse. In addition i would like to see plate inside the side triangles as well giving more full appearance in front elevation. Again three thumbs up for the effort
