Rugged Ridge 11543.16 Winch Mount Plate for 18-27 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT with Factory Steel or Spartacus Front Bumpers

Mounts perfectly. Instructions call for dremel but didn't need. Paired with a Badlands 12k rope winch. Will have to modify the free spool part of handle. Would have took about an hour and half but I took breaks lol

This mount was really easy to install.

I chose this mounting plate because of the full flange for the front of the jeep frame. I am sure glad I did too. When putting the bumper back on the 4 studs on the inside of the frame rail are difficult to tighten. some other plates only use those studs on the inside of the frame rails. The extra attachment plate on the back side adds a fair bit of strength to the over all set up if using the factory steel bumper. I mounted the badlands apex 12000 and the mounting bolts lined up perfectly.

I do wish the kit included an option for the jeep factory bumper to have the plate behind the fair-lead to cover up the holes from the factory plastic insert.
