Looking to get a Warn M8000 winch and am looking for suggestions on reinforcing the bumper during install. This is the first winch I have owned and have read on forum that this bumper has had issues and would rather build it up first. The winch sits directly flat on top of the bumper and there is a void underneath that runs between the frame.

Thinking of running 2 pieces of angle iron underneath and drilling out holes for the winch mounting bolts and bolting it up. What do you all think? Will this help? Any other ideas?
