Big Slack Off Road Hidden Winch Mount Installation Guide

In this video, Mark demonstrates how to remove the factory bumper from a Toyota Land Cruiser (or LX470) and how to install the Big Slack Off-Road hidden winch mount. The mount features a zero-cut design with mounting locations for the OEM Toyota bumper. Some drilling is required as specified in the video. Slight modifications are required to the factory bumper to fit a fairlead or rollers.
The mount grasps the frame on either side, stabilizing a pull of up to 12,000 lbs in all directions. Recoveries rarely take place in a controlled environment and often require a partial or complete sideways pull. Our winch mount was engineered with this in mind spreading the load across the frame, crossmember, and the mount itself all while fitting easily inside the factory bumper for a polished, OEM look.

Great installation video. One suggestion if I may, would be to include the winch control box relocation options since it looks like there wouldn't be space around the winch.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I have 2007 landcruiser, can you give me the details about alloy wheels specifications. Thank you

How do you get to the winch control?

[@zipdoa]

I’ve been looking at hidden winch mounts - this one is by far the best value. Do you have any customers who have used it with a Warn M12000? I’m curious about where to mount the control box!

[@bigslackoffroad]

Most folks mount the controller under the hood right in front of the air box

@@bigslackoffroad Would it be possible to develop a 'feet forward' winch mount? I've found that WARN requires feet forward for the heavier duty winches (M12000/M15/M16.5ti)

@@zipdoa It is possible to do this. Thanks for the information and suggestion!
