Looking for help + advice. Is it ok to fit a winch behind the OEM bumper. I need to fit a winch with a front removable Tow hitch. This is mainly to Surf launch and retrieve a Ski boat.
What is the size of the winch that is able to be fitted behind the OEM bumper. I am looking at a Runva 9500lbs to 12000lbs. Not sure what will fit.
It must have the removable tow hitch similar to what is fitted to the back of OEM Hilux. It will be installed on 2023 Hilux ext cab.
2nd Question: Where could I get this done. Supply winch bracket, supply tow hitch bracket and either I can supply the winch or they could. Plus installation.

We make them for the D4D and GD6.
There is a place in Ermelo that often buy from us, just can't remember their name.
Everything is a hammer.
Unless it is a screw driver.
Then it it a chisel.
