Would I have to use a Hawes fairlead mount with this bumper?

The cutout / mount looks to be the standard size... I have a regular winch mount on my TJ and the cutout and bolt spacing is the same ... So I would assume that you could use a roller fairlead on it also... hope this helps... Don

This rear bumper is not for factory towing package. You can still use the bumper but you will have to remove the existing hitch and install your own.

This bumper is set up to accept most winches as is. I put a Smittybilt 8 X2O on mine and it is great. You do need to put the winch on the bumper first before you install. If you intend to get a winch later, you will have to take the bumper off and then put it back on. Ray

If the Westin bumper has the two mounting holes in the center piece then it should work. Most of the bumpers I have seen are set up for off road lights if you want to add them.

i dont know. I drive a 1999 ford explorer and this rack did fit on my bumper as I don't have a hitch and buying and having a stitch mounted would have cost more.

you need a bumper for it to work,, like the ones on motorhomes the square ones made out of steel. Each side of rack is heavy. Works fantastic on our MH.

No, you don't, it's already built in and drilled for winch installation, the hole pattern is for the accommodation of several brands, have fun with your bumper, looks really good

My guess would be no, you might be able to use some holes but would most likely require drilling.Also the included hardware is so short I don't see how it could be used on any factory bumper. Plan on buying longer bolts.

No, I mounted a Warn VR8000. Fit without any mods and I've noticed no issues with the bumper not being able to handle the load of my 2000 TJ under winching load. No plate necessary.

I have the rubicon kit, and the stock frame mounts are just slightly closer together than the posts for the bumper. I use an F250 cab body, so the bumper is about halfway out, so the posts bend just slightly and manage to fit just fine.

The winch. The synthetic line and hook. The hawse fair-lead although it is matte finished not polished. The control switch. Positive and Ground cables long enough to hook it up in a Jeep Wrangler. Which has the battery located at the fire wall so they are probably long enough for most vehicles. And mounting bolts. It has pretty much everything you need to install it accept the winch plate. I bought my winch plate here on Amazon as well. If you have a bumper designed to mount a winch inside you may not need the plate. In that case check with the manufacture of the bumper to see if this winch will fit.

I've used mighty mounts on three different factory racks. You just have to check vehicle fitment. I think Yakima stopped making these so you have to refer to old catalogs.

Sorry. Not sure. Depends on the amount of space you have on your rail and your mounta

Shouldn't be a problem. The "U" bolts are deep and I had no difficulty mounting it to the rear bumper of my motorhome. That rear bumper also served as storage for a 4" sewer hose and there was plenty of depth left to the "U"bolts. In fact I needed a "through socket" to tighten the nuts as the bolts extended well through the nuts.

Conrad, this roof rack attaches at the door hinges in front and where the stock bumper attaches in the rear. Not sure what your set up looks like, but that may give you an idea of what to look at to see if it will fit. If your mods have changed any of that then you may need to make some adjustments.

The winch plate has an integrated mount for the fairlead. I was very happy with my purchase. I don't have any experience with other manufacturer's winch plates but this one served it's purpose and the powder coat finish was decent too. I will post pictures of mine shortly

I had a hitch already installed on mine. I removed it and used the hitch on the bumper instead. You have to remove all the bolts that hold the hitch in place anyway when you install the new bumper.
