I am looking at getting a front winch bumper for my 20 700-4. I am wanting to mount my Badlands 5000lb winch up on top, so that it is out of the mud and water and easy to access.
EMP has a size restriction due to the bull bar being in the center winch mounting location and says it only fits some winches up to 4000lb. Strong Made I am not a fan of because it mounts over top of the factory tube bumper.
I really like the looks of the Outkast Fabworxs front bumper, however I am unable to find any info or reviews of them. Do they mount directly to the frame just like the EMP? How durable are they, can you yank and pull during recoveries {not with the winch} and not worry about it? Does anyone have the Outkast bumper that can give pictures, thoughts or opinions on it? Thanks in advance.

I received an email from EMP. They stated that the Badlands 5000lb winch would fit, but is rated higher than tested. That is why they do not list that it fits on their website. I went with theirs and installed my 5000lb on it. I am happy with the fit and function and it has held up so far. I added d-ring mounts on the front, since they do not come with any.

That rig looks great. What size lift and tires are you running!?
