Just installed this winch plate with 12k winch. Went on my truck not the blazer. But install would be the same. Lots of pics







Cut the grill around the control box

Finished

Cut out around drivers side shackle to make room to reach into the winch lever

Looks pretty clean. Are the hitch tubes part of the kit? Looks like it all bolts up to where the original tow hooks were attached.

yes plenty of room to change the oil filter. All winch related parts are in front of the filter.
the receiver tubes are not part of the kit. I bought the plate used and ordered receiver tubes I. Amazon. Drilled and tapped them. Inside 3/8” bolts. A lot higher then the stock bolts.

yes. But it doesn’t line up with skid plate holes. Not a big deal. Drilled new ones
