Looking for an external winch mount. Not the hidden winch mount. Thanks.

WTB WTB- external winch mount

Warn makes this receiver hitch mount winch cradle. Positives are that the winch stays out of the weather unless in use so synthetic line last longer, can be used on front or back of vehicle. Negatives are that it hurts your approach angles, can’t open the hood when the winch is installed.

For an H3, you'd have to add an aftermarket front receiver since the H3 doesn't come with one like the H2. You'd still be able to open an H3 hood with this.

Winch plate attaches to the D-ring mounts but heavy duty reinforcment plates should be welded to prevent damage to the mounting locations.
This is the mount....
I increased the brightness to better show the plate
A plate welded to the frame for better support
Not sure if they are still available. The person who made it was actually a photographer; CP Photo out of Brighton MI
It is a very heavy plate.....

And I think the reinforcements were a batch made by TheBroken.

Yes, but easily duplicated in a machine shop.
I also have no idea if CP is even still around and if he is, does he still have the plates made.

That was years ago. It was produced by a guy in MI who was a photographer and owned a Hummer. His name was Chris Burkhalter and owned a professional photo company called CB photo. You could try a google search; however, since i ditched the H3 five years ago, lost contact with most people in the Hummer world (other than friends on this site and those who I worked with in GM engineering on the Hummer project). It was one heavy duty plate. Sold it to someone on this site (maybe Alrock...been five years....).
