I think the craftsmanship speaks for itself. I'm sure this it not 52'F-3's first rodeo.
Common sense will dictate what he can do with his hoist.

I did a similar project last winter, except I did a rear mount. Here are some pictures of my rig.
looks very nice, i'm guessing its very stable with those outrigger wheels.

so I was driving around today, over mild terrain and had no problems, no lifting a tire/loosing traction etc....
the steering is super easy, (1 finger) and the hoist worked great hydraulically. but my steering box (orbital valve) started leaking (ebay purchase).... so I parked and started making my wheel weights
