Anyone had this issue?
Installing an arcus bumper on a 2021 Rubicon and the rr winch plate is too wide to fit.


it’s almost a 1/4” too big!

Hey Chris, I didn't have that issue when I installed my Arcus bumper about a year ago. Are those mounting ears on the plate square with the bottom? If not, can they be bent a little bit towards the middle of the plate using a big crescent wrench or pliers?

Rugged ridge just told me the manufacturer will be sending me another one. Sounds like a manufacturer error.

just have to put the plastic bumper back on since it’s gonna take over a week to be in stock.

good times.
