2004 4Runner 4th. Gen V8

Icon front upper arm support and shocks and heavy duty rear springs. ARB rear locker.

I'm thinking about ordering a hidden winch made by "Budbuilt Hidden winches." its clean and hidden behind stock bumper. The system only weighs 25lbs. vs. my other option which is really great, C4 Fabrications front mid section bumper (75 lbs) that has two recovery points built into it. I can place D-Rings on it. The Budbuilt doesn't have recover points.

I would appreciate anyones thoughts on what they would choose. I really like the idea that the budbuilt is 25lbs vs. 75 lbs. Will I regret not having recovery points at some point if I go with budbuilt?

last question, I was thinking about welding on recovery points under the frame that will be strong. The only thing now is the stock metal U shape welded tie down up front under bumper that is really there for tie down during shipping. k

Thanks

Rich
