Installed this weekend in my Gladiator with a Warn EVO 12S. Watched this video multiple times prior, which also helped me make my decision to buy your mount. Very easy install solo and highly recommended.
Sorry for the confusion! That link was to our old site, as we transfered to a new website platform a few months ago and forgot to update all the links in our TH-cam videos! I guess I know one of my tasks now for the morning! As a side note, I currently have a bunch of these plates in stock and ready to ship!
Install video convinced me, as well as Artec's reputation for quality. Just placed order. Question on the chrome fairlead plate. Do I need to install that if I have a fairlead mount for lights? Assuming installing the plate is optional and more cosmetic to cover up license plate cover holes but wanted to confirm.
Is it possible to request the front cover be powder coated black to match the bumper instead of just aluminum? I've done a JL winch plate install using the warn plate, but this one looks so much easier and better design. Will be buying this for my second one. Thanks!
Unfortunately being a smaller company, we do not powdercoat in house as we don't have the space or equipment, so we are not able to do custom requests on powder. Thanks!
Do you have d-ring loop recovery access point mounts that are compatible with this wench plate? If so, is cutting of the steel bumper required to fit them?
We do not have any recovery points for those using the factory bumper and our winch plate, as it has factory recovery points included. The only option for our winch plate and d ring mounts would be running our Nighthawk series front bumper. Thanks!

Wiring might be easier before you put bumper back on ?

You will still need the stainless insert but you can sandwich your light mount between the insert and the fairlead .
Details good
Yeah buddy. Great video.
Thanks!

I really like the design, seems far easier than the Warn or others..... The video leads one to believe they do not need a fairlead of any sort?.......
A fairlead is required to be run with the winch plate, the cover plate is there for decoration to fill the large gap in the factory bumper.

By chance what’s the total weight of the winch plate (&spacers)?
It is about 25lbs.
