Winch Mount

Hi Hedsic, et all. What did you use for a winch mount? I have a 2005 liberty and want to mount a winch in front. However, the only mounts I've been able to find are ARB full bumpers, which I don't want. Any suggestions from you or the group? Thanks in advance.

I have the Rock Lizard convertable bumper which comes with winch plate/mounts

Pretty much exactly what Tom said are your options.

I almost went with the Detours before decided I wanted a bumper as well. The Detours backbone lets you keep your factory bumper. You have to do cutting of the bumper I beleive though.

Another option is custom build.. Honestly 98% of all of the custom bumpers I've seen so far have looked really god awful though. Most custom bumpers stick out by like 5 feet and just look weird and oversized.

I can point you to a great Facebook page if you want to check out probably some of the most hideous looking KJ's and custom front bumpers you've ever seen lol.

Here is how it looks with the RL bumper (this is the center only)
