I'm looking to mount my Superwinch EPI9000 in a stubby bumper/winch mount. I have a max dollar amount of $300 for the stubby. I would have love the AEV winch mount, but I can't get that any longer. The Expedition DX looks like my next choice at $289 and it comes with the d-ring mounts. Woods new bumper is also nice but it's $279 and the d-ring mounts will add more $$. So does anyone have a suggestion of a stubby which will mount my EPI 9000 and be under $300. I like the Hason /shockrocks etc. but I'm not spending $500 + on a stubby. Thanks Chris

 

Not sub 300 but close. Zaib4x4 has the Rugged Ridge Front Modular XHD bumper for $309.

 

$329....add $40 if you want the fogs...

or Expedition one makes a decent one too...

 

CSEoffroad.com has a Rugged Ridge XHD for $330, it's above your $300 mark, but they offer free shipping and it comes with D-rings... so it might work out better for you in the end.

I have that bumper and it's nice, got it in 5 days too. The best thing is it's modular, so you can always add onto it later.

 

Rancho has a stubby for about $300. it has a winch mount and d-ring mounts too.

 

Thanks for the imput so far, looks like the expedition DX or basic bumper is it. Unless there are other stubs I haven't found yet. Chris

 

I have the expedition one basic dx and like it very much.

 

Check out the Tera Flex website. It seems like I saw one under $300 in the blemish section. Not sure what was wrong with it.

 

I have the Rancho, it does not come with the winch mount, but the holes drilled for it to sit on top. The winch mount is extra. Mine was like $292.

Olympic also has a semi stubby bumper with fog light cut outs and winch ready. Im sure you still need a mounting plate. It does not come with d-ring mounts but they can be added for a few bucks. Had I known of this bumper before I got the Rancho I would have this.....the Olympic is $250.
