LOD front bumper install
 

who has installed there lod front bumper yet with winch mount did you guys have any install issues with the front crossmember

No issues with the crossmember, i did however need a rubber mallet to get the bolts to set. I hand-threaded the nuts and used the ratchet to pull them into place. Having a friend hold it in place helps.

I have heard that the 1st gen JK bumper had some crossmember issues - you might want to contact Chris at LoD and see if he's got any input.
