Default Rear winch bumper

I've only seen one other picture of a rear winch bumper in another thread, and it was said to be discontinued.
But redrock fabs is/are going to be offering this one...
Anyone seen this in person or have one?






It also requires the muffler be relocated, but damn that'd be cool.

I've seen this rear bumper first hand and do have thier front bumper installed on my 4 door Rubi.

It's up there pretty good, and you could build a skid if you where really concerned about hitting the Winch. The Bumper has some realy nice lines and i'll be getting a rear shortly.

Kelly from Red Rock did the disign work. I could get additional pictures if anyone would like to see more

Seems the muffler skid plate could come in handy there. I sure would like to know what exhaust that is.

Default How about a multi-mount winch

The rear bumpers already got the receiver. Add a receiver to the front bumper and the wiring and you can use the same multi-mount front or back. I am in the process of doing this on the JK now. Already have the multi-mount on my F-350 and my Polaris Ranger. I ordered a Mopar front bumper and am adding the 2" receiver to it.

I thought about doing that as well. Only problem I could think of would be if you were stuck in such a way that there was no room to install the multi mount. That would suck. That rear bumper would seem to eliminate that.

you could always flip it and cut your storage box in back and have you winch there. crawl in back free line it and have your spotter hook it up and you dont get muddy or get out.

Through the magazine I write for, we are getting ready to test the full compliment of RedRock's products. So I will provide some update once we are done testing in Moab!!!
