THe TG mount is not a "bolt on and go" type deal.......it is meant to have a bumper built AROUND it....


the plate CANNOT withstand winch loads without additional bracing to the frame. I believe mine has EIGHT mounting points as does marlins (including the body mount points)

I'm drawing a blank on the name of the supplier for some of marlin's parts, but I think he carries one as well.

That link has a TG Creepy Twin shifter so I'd be surprised if there was both a Marlin and TG connection, but who knows...

After more looking, it appears to be a TG distributor.

Nope, he supplies both with some parts!  He does sell some tg crap though, but I'm pretty sure anything that's tg says so, and lots of the little stuff marlin gets comes from him.  Does he only offer the one mount?  I don't feel like searching tonight...

I'm thinking on using the budbuilt winch mount and building around that.
