Warn makes one specifically for the JK stock front bumper it is a VERY thorough mount setup but, at its pricing you might just as well get a custom bumper!!!
Just Google: Warn JK winch mount you'll spot it quite quickly (I'd post a link but, I can never get this dang computer to copy and paste (my wife's mac, I'm not accustomed to the one button touch pad, lol!!!))

Damn, $350? Deffinately make more sense to buy a custom bumper. I just want to be able to still use my stick fog lights. And I think a cut down stock bumper will be lighter than any after market bumper. Any thoughts on that? I was also thinking about a stinger but again, stick fog light compatable and winch

MANY companies make bumpers that keep your stock fogs!!! Weight, yeah, the stock will probably be lighter (though I'd reckon not by much once you add enough beef to it to handle a winch) BUT, an aftermarket bumper will be a much stronger!
Poison Spyder, Hanson, LOD, AEV, ARB, Smittybilt, Rugged Ridge, Shrockworks, and tons more manufacturers make bumpers that keep the stock fogs, have a stinger (or at least a brush guard hoop), and mount a winch.
