Truck frame should be in good repair before installing. Frames that have rust holes, been cut, modified, drilled (other than for factory tow hooks or to mount BBWM) or that have any other damage should be professionally inspected and repaired before installation of the Behind Bumper Winch Mount kit. DO NOT INSTALL THE BBWM KIT ON TRUCKS WITH DAMAGED, CORRODED, BENT, OR HEAVILY MODIFIED FRAMES. What winches fit? With the variety of winches available on the market today, note that not all winch combinations may work. However, rest assured that the BBWM is designed to fit a wide variety of winches. Installer should consider how their particular winch will be operated once installed (how to reach winch controls once winch is mounted) and check with their winch manufacturer on capability of their particular winch being mounted and operated upside down. The BBWM Kit is designed to mount feet down style winches with the common 10” x 4.5” bolt pattern. For high mount configuration, the winch must fit between / inside frame rails of the truck (GM frame rails of this year are C shaped, with approx 24” between narrowest part, around 28” to inside of each frame rail, and about 4.5” in height. The low mount configuration allows wider winches to be mounted. The BBWM Kit also has provisions to mount the older Badlands short drum winches (6K) with 6.5” x 4.5” pattern and also the WARN 6” x 4.5” bolt pattern used on their competition/short drum winches. The BBWM is not compatible with feet forward style mounted winches (will NOT fit the WARN 8274, M12000, M15000, M16.5T nor other style winches with feet forward mounts)
