I bought a winch mounting plate for my new Warn 8274-50. How the heck does this thing mount above the stock bumper on an FJ40? Some pics would sure be nice. Is there not a steel "tray" that goes between the frame spars to set it on? The winch mount I got seems to face vertically and has a place to mount the fairlead. Help...:princess:

Thanks,

Post up a few pics of the mounting plate that you have and maybe we can help you out.

I've seen the tray type mounts for planetary winches that mount across the top of the frame rails to the holes that your recovery hooks bolt into, but not for the 8274. You traditionally see replacement, non stock bumpers with the mounting plate and fairlead hole built in. Doesn't mean it ain't out there, but I haven't found it on the interwebs or 5 mintes of searching here on Mud:grinpimp:

Have a 8274, but I got a custom bumper to make it work.

Here's the bumper I have with the winch installed, post #29

CCOT also makes a real nice channel bumper for the 8274.

Here's a pic of an old school mount on a stock bumper

Here's a pic of a planetary winch mount like what you are thinking of, won't workie with the 8274 though

Sounds like you have the mounting plate to have the winch cable go through the bumber and have the fairlead mount in the center.

Looked everywhere but the Warn website:doh: UDAMAN Pimp!

Try the Warn foot forward winch mount, PN 11078.
 
mine is prolly early 80s vintage, think they sell the same but its listed for a Jeep

They have a buncha mounts for the Heep, and have one that is listed as a universal flatbed mount, just can't find any pictures or specs of 'em.:meh:

Maybe PN 11310 or 21395
