Yep, they are attached. Got the bumper all bolted in and then got the winch all bolted in. All I have to do is finish up the wiring tonight!!

Also thinking about installing something like this......

I pondered buying one of those for a while. Then I decided to make one. Then I decided its a lot of work. And then I decided that I don't even use my winch that much.

I don't know about top of the line, it was actually relatively inexpensive compared to some of the others I was looking at (unless you just wanted a tube bumper). But yes, it seems very beefy and I couldn't be happier with the look!

Looks great Shane but make sure you used good bolts, I tested mine out on Gggs F350 when it got stuck in my yard (well actually Jen did)
