You just need to bolt your winch to a mounting plate, which in turn uses existing standard bumper bolts to the frame.

I don't know where to get one from since mine came with my first winch.

I thought a currier was someone who brushed horses.

Cheapest place I've found for a TJ winch plate is Llama4x4 £80 inc VAT.

Cheers & it's ok, I live with someone else's wife anyway! hehe.  You may or may not notice I did away with the number plate surround to make the winch plate fit without that pushing it up  - or you can trim the top off number plate surround. But I just stuck the number plate directly onto the bumper.

LOL. Cheers I already had it in my mind I was going to loose the surround, now got to make my mind up to put central without mount or off to one side  :017:
