Installed a Warn Zeon 10s on a MW3
I installed the Zeon 10s on my 2012 MW3 JK. It was a pretty easy install. I used the stock mount holes for the winch. It is off center a little toward the drivers side but it fits just fine. You have trim the stock vacuum pump bracket and use the relocation kit that AEV provides. The one deviation from the AEV instructions was the short button bolt needs to be on the drivers side top inboard location. The winch hits the regular stock long bolt.
I reinstalled the winch delete bolts because I like the look of them. I had to shorten/cut one of them that interfered with the winch clutch lever.
Again, this was a MW3 install. I got the AEV MW3 winch kit that includes the winch mount and fairlead plate, as they are not installed on the stock MW3.

Nice.
I sure wish they would come up with some type of security device to lock the clutch handle. I always worry about someone spooling out my rope and stealing it.
