4Crawler Offroad specializes in those hard to find parts that you won't find included with the major upgrade parts you can get from the big mail order and on-line suppliers. For example, many, many places sell springs and shocks to lift your truck. But after you put on the springs and shocks, you may find that you need shims to correct the pinion angles on leaf-sprung trucks, or you need a panhard bracket on a coil-sprung truck or a bracket for the brake proportioning (LSPV) valve. Or you may need a little more lift on the front or rear end of the truck after installing the basic spring/shock lift kit. Or you may need a little more lift to clear a larger set of tires, etc. So that is where 4Crawler Offroad can "come to the rescue", we make all those other parts you need to finish off your lift and make it all work like it should. And we also realize that some folks might inherit a vehicle with a lift and want to restore it to stock, so we can even help out there with body lift removal kits, etc.
And please, Please, be sure to include a valid Reply-To address in your e-mail if you expect to receive a reply. Several times a week, 4Crawler Offroad receives question by e-mail and the replies are returned as undeliverable due to countless e-mail delivery errors. So if you send a question and do not hear back in a reasonable amount of time, feel free to re-send the question, but be sure to double-check that there is a valid "Reply-To" address in the e-mail header or in the body of the message. And if the direct e-mail link above does not work, cut and past "Sales@4Crawler.com" into your e-mail program "To:" field and send a message that way.
Phone number available by request. 4Crawler Offroad has chosen to leverage the power of the Internet to handle most of our routine customer interactions. As such, we have no "brick and mortar" store front and we don't have a huge staff of folks sitting around awaiting your phone call. So, we don't put the number on the web site because we are barraged with e-mail requests (literally 24/7) for the most obscure questions, information and products. If we got even 10% of those contacts as phone calls, we would be spending all our time on the phone with folks asking for custom parts for a '51 Ford show truck or droning on and on with questions on how to get their 4Runner or pickup engine running or what sort of mods they are dreaming of making to their newly purchased rig or whatever, instead of making parts to fill orders for actual customers, like you! And, we could hire an answering service to handle the phone calls. But realize that this would just be a person to take orders, they would have no technical knowledge to answer your questions (that customers always seem to ask), so this is really not a satisfactory option in our estimation. We would also need to raise our pricing to cover the fixed costs of the answering service. But, we do realize some folks do like to ask questions or place an order over the phone, so if that applies to you, just ask and we'll send you our complete contact information.
NOTE: Due to high order volume and supply chain issues, it may take some time for deliveries, production and shipments to catch up. Order backlog could be up to 8 weeks.
No problem, you can use this simple one-click ordering buttons below. Just select a Buy Now button below with the shipping applicable to the items you are ordering, tell us what parts you want and how much they cost and your payment/shipping information and that is all that is needed.
And you can always order each item separately and then let us know if you want them combined into one shipment, if possible and we'll do that and refund any excess postage. But you need to tell us since some customers like to have things shipped separately as there are a few advantages. For example if you order 3 items, if we ship together we'll need to wait until all 3 items are ready to ship before we can send anything. Also, for international customers, if you had 4 orders for $50/ea. and shipped them separately, there may be no customs fees due since the value is below the minimum assessment value, while a single order of $200 might be assessed taxes and fees. So please let us know your preferences for shipping multiple item orders.
Our default shipping method is USPS mail and default payment option is Paypal. If you wish to use a different shipping or payment method, please contact us prior to ordering.

Having a winch is one thing, but where to mount it is another. Most folks permanently mount it on the front bumper, but what if you need to winch backwards, or what if another vehicle needs a winch and you can't maneuver your truck and winch into position? Having a portable winch mount is one solution. By using a standard 2" hitch receiver to attach the winch to the bumper, front or rear, makes it portable.
A: Rear View | B: Front View | C: In Use |
Shown above is a custom built winch cradle for a Ramsey REP8000 winch, cradles to fit other makes and models are also available. The cradle features a center receiver tube for conventional receiver installation. The 2" receiver is removable and can be drilled for both standard and deep receiver pins. A pair of 1" thick shackle tabs are welded to the bottom (one shackle shown attached in picture A) for use as additional bracing for side pulls or for use to strap the winch to a rock or tree for vehicle-free winching. In picture B, a roller fair-lead mount is set up for easy 2 bolt removal for easy storage. The heavy 1" square tube handles fully enclose the winch volume to protect it in storage. Also shown in pictures B and C is the quick disconnect power plug, which can be set up in a number of ways. If mating connectors are installed on the vehicle, the winch can be plugged in for power. On another vehicle, a short quick connect jumper cable connection can be made. The winch can even be powered for a short time off a small battery pack or a battery pulled from another vehicle, as shown in C. This can be a lifesaver if you need a winch uphill from a vehicle that might possibly roll down hill. Strap the portable winch to a tree (with a tree saver strap), then pull the cable tight with a portable battery pack and power it in or out to keep the cable tight as the vehicle is winched back onto the road.
The cradle and winch above was set up for a rig that already had a hard mounted front winch. The owner had the second winch and wanted something he could use for winching off the rear bumper or for use on rigs in the group without their own winches.
Portable winch cradles start at $200.00 for the basic cradle and $25.00 for the receiver tube (winch not included:). Contact 4Crawler Offroad to discuss your requirements.
Other custom hitch receiver and winch accessories are also available. Examples are custom, extra long recovery shackle receivers (for use with deep receiver pin holes), hitch receiver extensions, hawse fair-leads for winches w/ the UHMW poly rope, etc. If you can think it up, 4Crawler Offroad may be able to make it, contact us with your requirements.
