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.
