Looks good there. Winch looks like it fits well.

Winch looks great. Do you have a picture of the control switch?
Only thing I don't like is the extra length it adds. I want to carry mine in a pickup with 6.5 foot box. Hopefully its not too much of an issue if the bumper hits the front box rail first.

DG Tailgate EX Support Bars to better support the load over the tailgate.

I loaded it into my 6' 6" short box, I put down a 3/4" sheet of plywood to spread the weight over the tailgate, and used the DG Tailgate Ex support to better hold the load. It FIT with the added winch. No one tailgates me on the express way....... Load is supported using 4 Retractable racket straps, ea. 10' long. Last weekend I rented a Uhaul 5'x9' ramped cycle trailer. Perfect fit. Brought it home from the cabin for winch install, oil change, and rear bumper install. One day fast turn around by myself.

Looks good. Have you had it out on the trail yet? What you think of it? I got to get my hands on one.... Lol

Is that an aftermarket or a Honda winch mount kit?

Honda supplied Warner 2500# winch with the proper supplied winch plate adapter kit and ....... Newly required wiring harness. Took over 2 months for the adapter and then they found a wiring harness was required that was not in the adapter kit. Used the winch this weekend. Works great. Switch is mounted on the dash next to the 4x4 switch lever.
