I just purchased the DV8 FS-14 bumper for our 21 JLUR. The bumper is rated for up to a 12,000 lb winch. I want to stay under $500 for the winch. I like the look of the Zeak 13,000 lb Platinum since it has an integrated control box that sets in the middle of the winch (link below and dimensions attached). My questions are:
1) Will this winch fit this bumper? DV8 can't tell me (they sent me the install manual for their winch) and I haven't found anything on line about this.
2) Is it Ok to install a 13,000 lb rated winch on a 12,000 lb rated bumper?
The Jeep is my wife's daily driver and we don't do a lot of crazy trails. She wants the aftermarket bumper mostly for looks and I figured it might be nice to have a winch just in case we need it.
