No, you have to remove the bumper to install the winch. The winch mount is kindof like a bumper inside a bumper. Removing the bumper isn't hard, but if you have the skid plate you have to remove that first. I hope this helps.
It does thanks.

Who did you go through for this bumper?

I'm just wondering who ships this bumper the quickest?

I see you can get it at Quadratec and also AEV's website

aev-conversions.com/products/jk_bumper/

If I remember right one of them takes months to get it out to you? Or both?

I'm not sure who would get you it quicker. I got mine through the mag ( Four Wheeler ) for a instal write up for them, so it may have had a little push to the front of the line ?? I do know that about a month ago AEV did'nt have any to ship out so that may have caused some of the slow shipping ? I'd try and contact AEV and see if they have them in stock ready to ship, if they do I'd assume they would ship it out prety quickly....

Default Back to your four door...

I really like how clean your 4dr looks. I have read the hundreds of threads about lifts, tire sizes........ and finally I've seen the look and function I've been seeking. I hope you other posts detail your lift mod as well as this AEV install. I have the AEV bumper and 3/4" spacers (stock front still dives a bit), but have been uncertain about where to go with other mods. I want to use stock Rubi rims as well. Great job!
