Jgillott yes that is the exact unit, i am considering to install, the winch will be on during the winter months, in summer will be removed.
GSBrockman stock bumper.

Is the receiver rated for a 12K winch?

I have a front receiver and a 9K winch. I was running at 24K GCW with the winch installed and didn’t see anything different than lighter trailers without the winch.

The ‘19 receiver will put the winch lower than my ‘18. So more CAC blockage but less radiator blockage. With the EGR feeding the intake I doubt you notice any change.

Some also experience the fault code for adding an LED light which obstructs charge air cooler flow....

YES I love those that block the air flow with the HUGE light bars!

I have a 9600K Warn winch on a portable mount will use rather than bigger unit won't be air blocker to turbo charge cooler.

My 9 ft wide and 3 ft tall boss plow hasn’t caused any problems since 2015. I’m assuming it blocks at least as much air as a hitch and winch.

Do you carry it around during the heat of the summer and towing heavy? I’d suspect not, so that’s a fairly irrelevant comparison.

What’s irrelevant is your post. The O.P. Clearly stated it would only be on during the winter. Any other gaffs you’d care to make while I’m here?

Nope, just your "gaff." LOL

Here's the reality, you're a smart guy, but you're posts come across as egotistical and narcissistic. If we didn't have to read past your abrasiveness to get to anything that means anything, I'd really enjoy reading your posts and learning from your knowledge and life skills. Why not just throttle it back a little and be a bit more "user friendly?" I can't imagine you're this way in real life.

People take written word out of context all the time on forums. I'm thinking you don't mean to come across the way you do. So I'm taking all of your posts with a bag of salt and hoping you may understand my point.

I'd rather enjoy myself here on TDR, I'm betting you would too.

And this is what distinguishes TDR. Grown ups. Well done DieselShadow...

What’s out of context when I quote you saying “ irrelevant comparison”? You're the one running off at the mouth without so much as reading the original post, then disparaging me for what was in fact a reasonable comparison.
As for your cheerleader? She’ll learn soon enough about your shoot then look approach to posting.

I have installed the hitch on front of the truck, running to power an dodging all the boxes under the hood is a challenge.

Very Nice!!!
