1 / 7CFMi Front Winch Cradle — Squarebody Chevy & GMC 4x4, Optional Side Wings (1973–1987)
Mount a winch up front and keep your approach angle — a high-clearance winch cradle for your Squarebody 4x4.
This is the CFM Industries GM winch cradle, built for 1973–1987 Squarebody Chevy and GMC K-series 4x4 trucks, K5 Blazers, and GMC Jimmys. It gives you a strong, high-clearance platform to mount a winch up front for real recovery capability — without hanging a heavy full-width bumper out front that kills your approach angle on the trail.
Run it as a clean winch cradle on its own, or add the side wings to build it into a more complete front setup with added protection and presence. Either way, it's fabricated tough and designed to take the load and the abuse of serious wheeling.
Why It Works
- High-clearance design — solid winch mounting without sacrificing your approach angle.
- Built for K-series 4x4 — fits '73–'87 K10, K20, K30 trucks, K5 Blazers & Jimmys.
- Winch ready — strong platform built to hold a winch and pull hard.
- Optional side wings — add wings for more coverage and a fuller front-end look.
- Optional hawse fairlead — add an aluminum hawse fairlead for synthetic winch line.
