Feeling ripped off
 
Last spring I bought a 10th anniversary Rubicon. One of the features was a winch ready front bumper. What a load of crap! Checked today and the winch mount that you have to use with that bumper is 450 dollars. The winch mount for the regular Wrangler front bumper is only 260.

You're looking at it wrong. It's not like you bought a 30k dollar bumper from mopar, just that bumper happens to be what's on your jeep. My jeep could've come with a cereal box for a bumper and I'd have paid the same amount.

It's called "add on sales".

Thanks for the info on the Rustys ! The guys at quadratec didn't know of any other mount then the mopar one.

Go with the maximus-3 stuff, incredibly well engineered kit.

Just got my Rusty's. Not impressed. Nothing like the maximus 3, can only return for store credit.
