It's just a generic winch plate. 4 wheel parts has it. I had to custom fab the mounts from frame to plate. I have some good pictures somewhere in this thread.

Did some work on jeep. Modified steering pump to allow for more flow and power.

I drill out the flow restrictor to 3/16s. Then filed down the pin in the regulator to allow for more pressure. Seems to help. Will see once I really try it out

Interesting. Seems like an easy way to get a little more power.
