Do the fit up off the HF 18000# industrial winch

[Reworked LMTV]

Doing the fit up of the Harbor Freight 18K winch. So far so good. Mistakes were made, but nothing I can't fix. Long plate will get cut off. Wanted to maintain attack angle of front by placing winch higher. Wanted winch tucked in grill for better physics and appearance. Will add cooling intakes below for more air flow. Grill had to be cut to allow cab to open fully. It has seen better days anyway. Extremely tight fit at lip of grill outline. You can see it in the picts.

Reinforcements underneath is next step. Mounting plate and winch. Simple. Do NOT want the giant box toaster oven on a bumper look that I have seen.
