Depending on your springs, it might lower it a 1/2" - 1" or more. what brand lift do you have? My winch and plate sagged my stock springs over an inch, but when I switched to full traction springs it moved less then 1/2".

since you have the RE lift, thier springs are very stout. IMO you will not notice any drop on the front end. i have RE 4.5", when i installed the warn rockcrawler bumper which is heavier than the winch, there was no drop at all on the front end. think you will be ok.

Yup RE lift with LOD front and rear bumpers.
Actually installing the bumpers in 3 weeks (when they arrive) as well as the warn. Tires and lift will go on tomorrow (tires were on backorder).... Ugh.
Ill post before and after soon
