Most winches come with a winch plate. Try smittybilt.com bud

 

NOPE, not the one im buyin & its a Smittybilt.

 

I sold one on craigslist for like 40 bucks I believe few weeks ago. Was a smittybilt one I think.

 

The harbor freight ones are fine. No quality issues there. It's just a bent piece of steel with a couple holes in it.. not much to go wrong haha.

 

Just L brackets, short part goes to fairlead long part goes between bumper and winch

 

well a little update...... ive bashed my bumper all over and have to say it needs more reinforcement. ive bent the bumper mounts on both sides, even after ive welded it up to the jeep. also bent the passenger face where the gusset goes from the face to the deck. i hit a rock and it pushed the gusset up to the point where the deck is no longer flat. the bumper did stay put for winching/tugging purposes but if you plan on beating this bumper i would cap the bottom and tie the mounts together

 

What bumper is it

 

LoL, i plan on adding an extra few gussets as i wanna plate the bottom of it to act like a skid. Then i was thinkin of bracing the corners to the rails with some tubing just as long as it doesnt rub the tires. Last i wanna put a second plate over the bolt holes that goes back & welds to the plated unibody re-enforcements. Yeah i know its a bit overkill but i LOVE it!! LoL!!

 

Plan on installing mine tonight, Pics to come!

 

I think for the everyday Wheeler these bumpers are great. They hold up well to punching and pulling, will take mild off-road contact without much harm, and best of all, they are lightweight. I don't think Chris is building these to be used as battering rams, but more to be a cheaper lightweight multi use bumper for guys that need a recovery/winch point. Personally, I love my bumper. It's great for my daily driven Wheeler and meets my expectations without a problem.

 

X2 my bumper is the chit!! Great job again Chris for an outstanding product!

 

Thanks guys keep the orders coming in I may work on some diff gussits on the bumpers but thats about it, I'm trying to keep them at the price they are at and the more I put on them the mire shipping is thanks for all the good feedback.

 

Finally got back home and was able to put my bumper on.

I love it, Had a fitment issue but it was because one of my passenger side wholes into the frame was way off. it wasnt off on the bumper, just my frame. with that redrilled the bumper slid on with ease. very pleased! If you make bumpers for TJ's i would be interested in another.

 

Bumper looks good, I can get you a pic of the tj bumper that I have what's your email.
