Hello all,
After much research - within my budget - I have decided on the Smittybilt Gen2 X20 Comp (Synthetic rope) 12,000# winch.
I ordered the factory steel bumper for my JLUR - hopefully the Jeep will be delivered in the next couple of weeks...
In the meantime, anyone have this exact setup? If so, what exactly does "winch ready" mean? Do I still need a winch plate, or am I good to go? What other considerations or issues did you encounter?
Thanks!
Plate options appear to be:
-MOPAR
-ATP
-RUSTY'S
-WARN
-JL Rugged Ridge
UPDATE:
Went with the ATP plate and the whole installation process was very easy and the winch itself fit like a glove. Pictures attached and will add some more tomorrow
If you want to keep the Mopar Factory Steel Bumper AND like the Smittybilt X20 series winch the ATP plate is the way to go!
Let me know if you have any questions!
