A manually operated winch bumper is mountable to the rear of a vehicle. A winch drum is rotatably carried by the bumper and provided with a pair of coaxial shafts projecting in opposite directions from the winch to the ends of the bumper. The winch can be manually operated with a crank from either end of the bumper by insertion of the crank into sockets provided at the outer ends of the shafts. A third socket is provided for one of the shafts adjacent the winch drum such that the winch can also be operated from a position intermediate the ends of the bumper. Placement of the winch at the rear of the vehicle helps in pulling it out of terrain in which it is stuck since the vehicle will be pulled out from the direction it entered. Provision of crank sockets at either end and in the middle of the bumper allows manual operation of the winch even in an environment where shrubbery or other obstacles prevent access to portions of the bumper.
