DIY Winch Bumper Sketch - 2x6 Rect Tubing Butt Welded to Winch Center Section

Assembly drawing of a winch center section showing where the 2x6 rect tubing is butt welded together.

AI caption · Photo 760 of 1268

This is a hand-drawn fabrication sketch (not a factory document) showing how a custom winch bumper is constructed. The drawing depicts an isometric view of a long bumper assembly built from 2x6 rectangular steel tubing joined to a wider 'Winch Center Section'. Three arrows labeled 'Butt Welded Together' point to the seams where the end of the 2x6 rectangular tubing meets the center section, indicating that the joint is made by butt welding along the top, side, and bottom edges. The center section shows an elongated oval cutout (apparently a slot, likely for winch cable/fairlead access) and notched corners along its lower edge. Dashed lines on the right side of the drawing indicate the hidden continuation of the tubing and a mirrored joint on the opposite end of the center section. The sketch is part of an album of related design drawings (clevis mounts, gussets, expanded design views) uploaded to a 1993 Ford Bronco gallery, suggesting it documents a DIY winch bumper build. A reader can learn the basic material spec (2x6 rectangular tubing), the joining method (butt welds), and the general geometry of how the outer tubing sections attach to the winch center section.
