This all-inclusive winch mount kit includes everything you need to put the Smittybilt XRC GEN3 winch in the "winch-ready" factory steel bumper found on many Rubicons and specialty trim packages for the Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT. Whether you have a Rubicon, 4xe, or a Mojave Gladiator with the Steel Bumper Group, this winch mount kit takes the guesswork out of choosing the right part for your steel bumper. The kit includes the Smittybilt GEN3 XRC winch of your choice and the Maximus-3 frame-mounted winch mount giving you everything you need to go from no winch to ready to recover on the trail adeptly. We offer additional (but optional) parts that may help you complete your front bumper winch setup. The winch hook anchor provides a convenient place to store your hook so it is not against the bumper, the filler trim plates fill the gaps between the frame and bumper after the installation (the factory plastic trim piece is removed during the install), the d-ring loops attach to the bottom of the winch mount allowing for more flexibility when recovering, and the license plate mounts cleanly allow for the install of a license plate for those required to have one by their state.

Faster, Stronger, Easiest to Use. The Smittybilt XRC GEN3 line of winches has been completely redesigned from the ground up with innovative, user-friendly features and improved power efficiency. The 7 horsepower motor brings an average line speed increase of 12% over its GEN2 counterpart, adding more speed and power with less AMP draw while under load. The ergonomic remote controller integrates a Load Indicator Warning System, so you will always know how much your equipment can handle. Recovery in dark conditions is a breeze with the remote’s built-in flashlight; when additional light is needed, a 12-volt power post is located on the control box meaning you are ready for anything. Two magnets are built into the controller for convenient placement on steel surfaces, leaving it out of the way when not needed. A high-visibility clutch lever features large lettering, allowing you to see whether your winch is engaged or free spooled at a glance. The XRC GEN3 line of winches are backed by a lifetime mechanical warranty and a 5-year electrical warranty.
