ducks the winch set up works fine used to leave it in the cargo area until i had to carry it to the front knee deep in mud (someone had been playin in my bypass route to a fishin spot) . i then moved the mount back to get the cradel closer to the bumper (looks better now)

I had some of those step bars on a Yukon once. They are great as long as you NEVER go off-road with them.
I ripped mine off on a stump and they wrecked my rocker panels where they were bolted.

austinmark i got the steps somewhere on clearence they work fine not my first choice though (short wife young children) nothing special about install, but if u offroad like wngrog mentioned u do have to watch for something reaching out and grabbing them, however ive had truck sitting on frame stuck and winched and no damage yet

Nice rig. Replace those steps with a slider design that doubles as a step and you're good to go!
