I added a winch AND a new bumper to my rubi and it sagged less than 1/4 inch. ymmv.

Mine sagged a noticeable amount as time went on. At first it wasn't much, but now (on flat ground) it's slightly lower in the front than the rear with factory suspension and a 2.5" spacer up front, and a 1" spacer in the rear...

Keep in mind, my winch is pretty hefty (Warn 9.5XP) and still has the steel cable, at around 100 lbs. with all things mounted to it. And my bumper is also pretty hefty at around 75 lbs.

Once I install my EVO 2.5" Enforcer Stage 2 Plus lift, I'll report back.
