And just finished. Super happy with the install. The only pita is reaching under to switch it to free spool. Other than that it’s a great setup that features the ability for self recovery while being understated.

Mounting a 12k badlands winch on my Yukon XL using a rough country hidden mount for a Sierra since there’s no such thing for my application :/
Going good so far and now have everything done except the hole in the air dam.
Should be complete by tomorrow and thank god it has a wireless remote lol.
Need to post pics of the whole rig!! Let's see it

So thanks to the bumps top thread over In the other subforum, I realized mine were done or missing. Had a front driver halfway done and my rear pass was completely missing. Seems to ride better but maybe it's just me. Front are new kybs and in the rear I have new oem ACD nivomats. 20220916_173849.jpg

Well the fronts aren’t bumpstops like the rears are. The rears will only make contact if you try to do jumps or your shocks are shot and you’re hauling a ton. But those front jounce stops are used all the time as fulcrums for the torsion bars unless you’re lifted and haven’t adjusted how they mount.

I need to replace all the bump stops on mine. The fronts have completely disintegrated and the rear is are now crumbling apart as well. Where'd you buy these from? Have a link by any chance?

They were maybe 2/16 away from touching the control arm. I'm thinking it made a huge difference in ride. I ordered Amazon units and seemed like good quality.
