WARN ZEON or M12 on ARB BUMPER - Pics, Tips?

[jaymar]

Found this, wondering who else is out there. Particularly interested in low-profile mounts, with control unit relocation. Also what hardware was needed for the winch mount, and clocking, drainage, what you did to cover the hole after moving the control unit, etc. Got pix?

Saw someone say the max width that will fit this bumper is 24.5". The Zeon is 24,25" and the M12 24.37". ARB refuses to share dimensional drawings of the bumper, and claims to have no knowledge of ZEON fitment. "we can confirm that the WARN M8000, XD9000, and M12000 do fit. though fitment of the M12000 and M8000 require a spacer kit which is part number 3500050"

Warn Zeon 12 in ARB Bumper

I am going to be installing a Warn Zeon 12 into an arb bumper on my 80. I have to clock the clutch handle so that I can access it from the top of the winch since it sits feet forward in the bumper. Does it matter which way I rotate the winch housing after removing the bolts on the side...

ARB bumper and a Warn M12

Like the title says I was just wondering before I buy it I currently have an ARB front bumper on my 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser and would like to buy a Warn M 12 winch…. Has anyone installed this winch before on this bumper and does it fit without modification or what does it take to make it fit?

I ask about drainage because of this...

Warn 9.5XP Winch Users - Important

Just FYI for people that use Warn 9.5 XP Winches with a feet forward mounting (like on some 100 Series bumpers). The motor has two drain slots 90 degrees from each other. The winch motor comes from the factory configured so it will drain when mounted feet down and the other drain hole is sealed...

I have a XD9000i, so integrated solenoid, mounted feet first. I do have aluminum blocks as spacers between the feet and bumper. I have no clearance issues with the grille.

Previously had an M8000 and find the integrated model is a cleaner install.

I have a Zeon 10-S on mine. It needs spacers in order for the sides of the winch to clear the bumper.

Post up what you find relevant--install, spacers, clocking, control relocation, whatever it took. Thank you!

I've got a zeon 12. I used steel spacers for the feet and then bent up some sheet metal for a shelf for the controller and to help keep the wires routed.
