Interesting that the frame ends are different. I wonder if a factory elec winch would mount. Tow hooks are welded on, too.

anybody ever really inestigate this as possible?, basically a swap of bolt on parts and fitting an aftermarket electric winch
Vehicles without third row have a cargo lamp.
How about an 80 series PTO? Pictures, years, etc?
but anybody ever do a striaght oem swap?
My OEM winch unit has arrived with all the goodeis in the above pictures (mounting plate, bumper, fairlead, plastic cover, remote, etc.). I don't have time to put it on yet. Hopefully, it will fit right on with minimum to no modification, since I'm zero banana.
I'll keep you posted when I finish it and, if possible, will try to do a write-up thread but my English is so poor.
Cheers!

Hey Duke...any luck with this? I'd like to see how you faired, how much work it took, and what exactly it entailed...My OEM winch unit has arrived with all the goodeis in the above pictures (mounting plate, bumper, fairlead, plastic cover, remote, etc.).

Awesome.I have this OEM Aisin winch on my rig - 11,000 lb rating - I think the decal above was for the cable.. exterior controller with military conection plug and reaches enough to sit in the cab running the cable through an open window or sunroof. The best feature to me is the line pull speed, no figure on that but faster than most.
