What type of electrical connector do you use for the winch? I have been thinking of doing something like that for my Yota.

Thats coming right along, Nice work 
Question: Is that front tow hitch store bought or home made, I need one.
If store bought, do you remember the maker ?
Also could you post a pic or two of the mounting
Thanks

I thought about it , but I want to be able to move the winch to the back of the truck if the need be . The front hitch allows me to do this easily . Although the bumper is large , it is no heavier than the stock bumper and would crumple similar to the stock bumper in an accident . I don't want to bend the frame if it can be prevented in an accident . Hope this clears things up .
