    Default Bumpers

    So I am ordering bumpers for my xj. Considering two options - one with a winch plate and bolts back to the frame, another that uses the stock bumper mounts but has a 2" receiver so I can mount the winch before I go play, but keep it safe in the garage the rest of the time. Opinions ?

    I would say you can go with either the winch plate or one with a receiver.. but either way I would make sure you get ones that use the stock mounts.. but also want ones that'll tie in further back to the "frame".. otherwise when you do make use of the winch, you'll over time rip through the stock mounts.. I would have to say though.. if you do pick up one or the other.. I would pick up the winch plate version..
