Winch mount, who, where, what?

Hi all, im buying a winch in a couple of days and want to know how and the best way to fit it. Im not buying a winch bumper just so you know. Iv seen a winch mounting plate on bits4vits for 100 quid, do any of you guys have these fitted? Can anyone reccomend an alternative? Suggestions and info greatly appreciated.

And while im here....sorry to do this but whats a good winch for 350-450 ££££ ?
I wont ask about cable or rope haha.

Really want to get this sorted before i buy a winch

Thanks all and merry christmas

For that kind of money, get a Goodwinch TDS 9.5c
From time to time they're also for sale used on Devon4x4 forum and Mud Monsters FB page

Also perhaps consider a Superwich Talon 9.5.

Took my Jimny to a fadricator close to me and he made me a plate to go behind the bumper similar to the ORA plate and only cost £20, hope this helps

Cheers pal. I was looking at those talons, they seem to get a good review. Am going to check out goodwinch to.

The Goodwinch generally get better review by users than Talons. You can't put a finger on the Service Goodwinch provide. And there's also a good range of upgrades for the winch.

Only mentioned the Talon winch as an alternative.

There are of course other cheaper winches. Probably just as good for greenlaning. But most of them are stupidly slow and not of same quality as TDS and Talon. And then there are the much more expensive winches from Warn, Red Winches etc..

But as with all other things, horses for courses really
