ng Systems: Hidden Kit For Dodge 1500

HIDDEN KIT FOR DODGE 1500 PICKUP
With the introduction of the newest WARN Hidden Kit, Dodge owners now have one more option for appearance and function. The kit for the Ram 1500 mounts the winch completely behind the existing factory bumper, and will accomodate any WARN low-profile winch up to the 9.5xp. Access to controls is cleanly hidden behind the front grille.

FYI, 1500 Rams are not designed for snow plows either.

Can one of you powerwagon guys measure the distance between the frame rails where the winch is?
Anyone have the dimensions?
The frame rails are a hair under 34.75 inches apart, however, the winch brackets are 34.125 inches apart since there are bumper mounting flanges between the rails and the winch brackets.
Maybe they say no winch for the 1500's because the winch and mounting bracketry is going to weigh somewhere in the neighborhood of 150lbs. and the front springs are going to need to be replaced.

looks like the front of the frames are different. Mine only has 31" of clearance between the frame rails. Time to fab something up!
