Warn Winch M8000 Install on CBI Hybrid Bumper

Did our video help you? If so, consider buying us a beer: bit.ly/3feE6tJ
PLEASE READ THIS VIDEO DESCRIPTION FOR HELPFUL INFORMATION
In this video, we show you how to mount a Warn M8000 winch on a CBI Offroad Fabrication Hybrid Front Bumper. Winches come in all different shapes and sizes but the mounting of the winch onto the bumper should be similar with all winches. With different winch models, you'll have to see how it fits with the grill and alter the grill accordingly to make it fit. Some people opt to mount the control box in a different area, like the engine bay, but this will require you to extend all the electrical lines from the control box to the winch motor.
Update: CBI no longer makes this bumper for 3rd Gen 4runners. We decided to keep this video on our channel for anyone who already owns a CBI front hybrid bumper or buys a used one and is looking for a good tutorial on how to install a winch on it.

**A member of T4R.org did an In-Cab Control Mod and relocated the control box for his Smittybuilt winch so he wouldn't have to cut up his grill. Here's a link to his post where he provides a picture of where he mounted the switches in his cab and a link to a wiring diagram PDF he made up. www.toyota-4run...
