This all-inclusive winch mount kit includes everything you need to put the Warn VR EVO Series winch in the "winch-ready" factory steel bumper found on many Rubicons and specialty trim packages for the Wrangler JK; including the Rubicon Recon, Hard Rock, X, 10th & 75th Anniversaries. Whether you have a Rubicon or a specialty trim package with the factory steel bumper, this winch mount takes the guesswork out of choosing the right part for your steel bumper. The kit includes the Warn VR EVO winch of your choice and the Maximus-3 frame-mounted winch mount giving you everything you need to go from no winch to ready to recover on the trail adeptly. We offer additional (but optional) parts that may help you complete your front bumper winch setup. The winch hook anchor provides a convenient place to store your hook so it is not against the bumper, the filler trim plates fill the gaps between the frame and bumper after the installation (the factory plastic trim piece is removed during the install), the d-ring loops attach to the bottom of the winch mount allowing for more flexibility when recovering, and the license plate mounts cleanly allow for the install of a license plate for those required to have one by their state.
