$99 Winch Plate for OEM Bumper
I have finally found an inexpensive winch mount that can be used with the Factory bumper on a JK. Before I order it I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this or has installed it.....
- They state it will not interfere with factory tow hooks
- They state it will bolt right up with no fabrication or modifications
- All bolts and mounting hardware is included
- Drilled for common medium and large winches
I am a little concerned from the pictures as it appears to only be held on by two bolts - it may just be the angle of the pictures!
I found it on ebay through Jack Mikol Automotive - do a search for " Heavy Duty Winch Mounting Plate 07-08 Jeep Wrangler " and it should come up.
I specifically asked if it will bolt up to a stock bumper and they responded yes!
More to come....

Looks like it bolts on the inside of the frame rails on each side via the 4 inner bumper bolts, so it mounts with 6 total bolts. I've been looking for this type of setup, though the universal mounts can be mounted upside down to hide the winch...

I have ordered it and will do a write-up on it when it arrives.
