Replace your bent or rusted license plate holder with this brand new Rugged Ridge factory style replacement bracket. This part is for maximum protection against the elements.
Website easy to navigate, product was as advertised and arrived promptly. Will use 4WheelParts for future needs.
Ran this on my JK without issue for 5 years. Got a JL Rubi and bought a new one to fit the same (JL version) of the same bumper. Tried to put it in place and 3 of 6 tines broke. I was an experienced user of this previously good product. Steer clear.
DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT INSTALL THIS. WILL CAUSE DAMAGE. First off simply design, seems sturdy and well put together. However, it will end up cross threading your studs and doesn't hold the tire securely. If you didn't see the first part of the review, DO NOT PURCHASE. Does not work with the JL. Now I need to replace my studs, thanks rugged ridge.
This bracket dose not fit the Smitty Built fair lead on my X2.0 winch. It dose say it may not fit all fair leads but i took a chance, i lost.
LOOKS GREAT, EASY TO INSTALL AND REMOVE. ONLY PROBLEM WAS THE SPACING FOR MY ROLLERS WAS OFF BY 1.5", HAD TO DRILL NEW BRACKET HOLES, OTHER THAN THAT, PIECE OF CAKE. MY WINCH AND ROLLER PLATE IS XRC PRODUCTS
