Yeah, i plan on calling these guys tomorrow. At this point i will probably just buy another winch plate, as i saw this thing bend pretty easily. Here are some pics.
I ordered Rusty’s Winch Plate to mount my winch on the stock steel bumpers on my 2019 Rubicon a couple months ago, and my first time using it the winch plate bent. I was using a 9500lb Smittybilt winch and it bent pretty easily. This was a REAL pain to install, so i wasn’t looking forward to...
I ordered these.

Basically made them square (cut the long narrow section off and then used 2 existing holes towards the bottom of the fender. Just popped out the plastic fasteners. Replaced with nuts and bolts. $28 and maybe 1 hour total time.
I was pretty shocked to see how quickly my Rubicon gets dirty. One day i drove it to the carwash, and it was wasted by the time i got home. I bought some $27 universal mud flaps and put them on. I took them in the mud, dirt, and some wet roads, all in about 100 miles. Massive change.
This was...
I also told them i was going to do the deal tonight if we could make it work. But i also understood that it might not make sense for them. No hard feelings.
