This all inclusive kit for Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT Steel Bumper Group owners includes the Smittybilt X2O 10K Synthetic Rope Winch as well as the Maximus-3 Winch Mount that is required to install a winch in the Steel Bumper Group bumpers commonly found on Rubicons and other specialty trim packages. From the factory, the bumper is defined as "winch ready", meaning you still need a winch plate and additional install hardware to install and properly fit the winch for recovery and use. The Maximus-3 winch mount plate is made from 1/4" steel and fully integrates into the frame of the JL and JT meaning you get the strongest, most reliable mounting available for the winch. This kit looks to simplify the process for those who want to mount the X2O winch into their bumper by providing a no-questions-asked solution providing all parts needed for installation in one convenient package.
