    I had a brushguard on my 11 Taco dclb and decided to get the Westin winch mount.I was able to bolt the brushguard to the mount.
    I got a Viper 12000lb winch from E-bay for $291 and the mount was $248.
    I think it looks bad ass and it works better than it looks.

    I like it. How difficult was the install? Did the bumper need to be cut or anything?

    It wasn't to bad to install ..The radiator has to come loose not out just loose to get the bracket past and onto the frame. It is solid tho. No cutting of anything.

    Do you have to have the brush guard or can you have the winch mount on its own?

    Hey Fire I have the the tow hooks that go with that mount if you interested. They are still in the box, I purchased them because I was originally going to go with that mount but decided to get a different mount.
