Hey Bman ! I checked Canadawinchs but didn't see a mounting plate. I have a 2010 JK and would like a plate that mounts the winch low so the fairlead goes threw my stock bumper . Any advice ?

Are they made in North America? I was looking on the website but couldn't find out.

Deepdiverterry,
do you mean somthing like this?

I haven't seen anything as such in my travels. If you wanted to make a custom mount I would first check to see if your winch will fit inside between the frame rails and also between the bumper and grill.

dont forget that winches may be offset, check the measurement from the center of the fairlead to both ends

I noticed in the Runva video that the winch was mounted low but I didn't see the plate offered on the parts site. Maybe I'll give them a call today if I get time.
