Before i asked about a good winch mount and i think i found one. I was wounderin about all your opinions sence you all are more educated in the build of an XJ. Do you think it is strong enough for an 8000lb winch?

 

Thats designed for an ATV and not a jeep, after you figured out the right way to tie it into the frame you would be better off buting one thats made for the XJ. Like the backbone from DETOURS

Wow, i feel stupid for not readin the small print. Thanks ill read more before i post again.

 

Pretty sure the BackBone is possibly still, the only stand alone winch platforms out there for the XJ.
I maybe passing right through Greensboro in the next couple weeks, might be able to get it to you for 'nothing', 'notta', 'free shipping'....if you can meet me at an exit ramp/commuter parking lot......I'd be passing thru around 8am.

Just a thought.

 

I wish, but i got school and if i dont show up to school then i dont keep the jeep. Thanks for the offer though. Id still like to buy it, just dont know how to meet. Mabe i could pay you for it shiped, unless you dont want to waste your time, id understand.

 

Well my parents cant take my jeep. I own it. Although I havent missed school this year at all but still.

 

Okay, now you lost me.
Just try'in to save ya some $$, shipping is the normal method.

 

I would gladly pay you if you could ship it, i cant meet at 8am because i have school. just private message me if your ok with shipping it.

 

DUDE454, Detour runs http://www.detoursusa.com/ might as well just order it from there and they can ship it to you.

Speaking of the Backbone do you make one without the Winch Plate and just the D-Ring Tabs?

 

Didnt know he ran the place, just thought the name was a conveniance and he just had an old one. My mistake.

 

Thankyou for clearing that up Reverend........


I'm sorry, we dont offer front recovery, only the BackBone or a full bump'a.
