Winch Plate

[Matt]

I'll be watching this too. While I will eventually have a full front bumper, this would allow me to do it in stages.

Also take a look at the Engo winches. E9000S seems to be popular around my local clubs and is very affordable for a synthetic line winch at <$450

I'm also interested. The GF told me I need a winch. She doesn't like when I wheel with only two vehicles

I was driving around during lunch came across a trail going through power lines and decided to take a look.. Well that turned into thick much, duh snow just melted, and really put the MTRs, QDII and HEMI to the test.. Thats why I want a winch so I have the ability to wheel without worry. A steel bumper for a DD just doesnt make logical sense with the limited wheeling I do so winch plate with modded bumper is my plan..

I just want to get to the point where people dont believe me when I tell them its a Commander! Lol I often get asked "what kind of jeep is that?" And after I say its a Commander they say "oh cool ive never seen one like that!".... swap out the bumpers and its really going to puzzle people! Lol

And I did almost rip my front bumper off during my last wheeling trip...it'll be nice to have something that doesn't flex/crack when I have an "oops" moment.

Yea I get that all the time when I go down to the local wheeling spot down by the river, everyone asks what is that and why are you bringing it here?!?! I just laugh and say watch me, I think they are more shocked at the noise and capability than anything, everyone is out there wit XJs and wranglers.. Its amazing when I see a stock Commander on the road, people look at me like damn thats what mine could look like, they look so pathetic stock!!

oh yes I have gotten multiple "Huh?" "When did Jeep make that"? ......However, everytime I pass a XK on the road its a damn woman! lol

I did have one guy stare me down in his tinted out XK a few weeks ago

And I only have ever seen (1) lifted XK but I think she bought it that way

[Matt]

Any updates? I bet we could get a good order going... Andrew + Adam + Matt +......

Jon, do you have a drawing for the winch plate? I can take a look at the dimensions and see how I think it'll work on my XK; could even do the test fit for you here.
