I’m waiting for delivery of my 2021 JL two door Rubicon, stock bumpers, to be delivered to Maui from Portland. I’d like to install a winch.
1. will the stock bumper accept a winch? I’m thinking not, I didn’t opt for the steel bumper group due to some negative comments here.
2. are any winches made in USA?
3. whose winch bumpers do folks like? I’m looking at a short bumper.
4. I’ll likely need to compensate for the weight up front, a spacer kit perhaps?
thank you for any help
Back in the day I’d automatically say Warn was my choice but I see they are now Chinese winches!
this is my third Jeep. My first was a 1967 C101 Commando I restored. My second was a 1997 TJ SE. I liked them both But the Rubicon is the holy grail of Jeeps. Plus, my wife wanted it, who am I to object?
