There are four bolt holes under the frame at the front where tow hooks mount on the IFS trucks. I used only these for a custom winch bumber and winched a number of times with no problem. I can't use them anymore, because the SAS covered those holes.

It would be safer to have additional mounting, but I would definately at least utilize those holes if you can.
