MileMarker builds the Extreme winch mounts to handle the Extreme tension our winches can create! Tested to the extreme as all MileMarker products are. All extreme mounts incorporate a 3/8" thick mounting steel plate and steel bar fully welded to the vertical upright mounting brackets. This creates an extremely strong "box structure" capable of withstanding the 12,000 lb. force that MileMarker winches produce. Optional "wrap-a-round" headlight hoops can be ordered and can be added to the Extreme Grill Guard type mount.
