Bumper mount adaptors
I did a search and didn't get any results, so my question is are there any companies that anyone knows about that makes adaptors to mount YJ/TJ bumpers to an XJ?, looking for adaptor for both front and rear if they exist, otherwise would a fab shop be able to make something like this for me, any help or suggestions would be very helpful, keep in mind I do not posses fab skills myself, or the necessary tools to do such work.

not really special, but don't want to have to repurchase them if I already have a set, got a great deal on a couple of stubby bumpers off of a TJ, like the swing awat spare tire carrier and hi-lift mount on the rear and the winch mount on the front one, now I just have to get a winch to put on it before I mount them, somehow, onto the '90 two door I just picked up.

This guy.
It's really simple. Take a piece of quarter plate steel and take one of your stock bumper mounts that go on the frame and trace it onto the plate steel and trace the bolts. Cut the back piece and have extra steel stick out from the front, then you simply get the measurement of how tall the top and bottom mounts for the wrangler are then cut the extended plate steel to that, then weld tabs inside on top and bottom. I believe it was 2inches by an inch and a half or so.
