Anybody know of a winch mounting system for the titan yet?

Title pretty much says it all. I want to mount my winch but dont really want to fab something up for it. I guess I am just getting lazy

These guys are making a bumper mount.

Titan Bumper Mount for Winch

Here is the related thread.

Thanks, I entered Winch Mount in the search function and it didnt return that thread.
The problem with that one is it is a prototype and is not in production as far as I could tell.
I also really dont want to replace the entire bumper. Looking for a simple add on mount if there is such a thing available.

for use with a standard 2" portable mount (which several mfg's already make) and is expecting to ship at the end of October. Always willing to compromise, I ordered the T-Max 9500# winch earlier this week along with the portable hitch mount they make for it. So until Warn is done with our front hitch assembly, I'll use my Titan Hitch - though I admit that config doesn't lend itself too well to forward progress when your in the muck. Backwards will have to do for now. :-(

NET

p.s.,

rubicon4x4.com is offering the T-Max 9500# winch (http://www.t-maxwinches.com/winches/winches1.html) for $449.00 and...I coincidentally found myself speaking this afternoon with Mike Stutz who is the sole US distributor for these winches (http://www.rockcrawler.com/features/...max_remote.asp) - he went on about how upset he was that this company is offering this winch for this price and it is coming to an abupt end in the next day or 2. Trust me, I searched extensively and could not find this winch - which appears to be of top quality - for less than $550.00. So if you want to save ~$100.00, check it out. I was going to wait a few weeks, but couldn't resist the savings.

Yeah the T-Maxx is a good winch. It is basically a Warn knock off. The off road park I go to sells them and has been very happy with them and believe me they abuse them.

I have a Ramsey Bad Boy 9500 with a wireless remote that I think I am going to mount so I can pull cars from ditches this winter.

Thanks for the info
