Thanks Bash! The Hidden Winch Plate is the best out there. Quality of the craftsmanship is top notch. The price does not reflect the quality, low price with high quality. Customer service, no, it’s personal service by Bash is icing on the cake. Being local (Southern California) saves money on shipping.

I love this winch mount! It was well packed when delivered. The fit and finish and welds look very good. Install was simple, i rushed through it as i was leaving for the UP the next day, so my bumper cuts could have been cleaner. I like the tie in points to the frame. Almost the competitors only mount to the frame horn, the HK connects to the horns and frame. I’ve used the my winch dozens of times with no issues, including off angle pulls. The shackle tabs are super overbuilt. I’ve use...

"I was impressed w the quality of this winch mount. It is hefty steel and beautiful welds. Best hidden winch out there for GX70 and looks great w an aggressive bumper chop!" -

Hands down the best product and absolutely the best customer service I have ever dealt with. I was in a bind and in a dire need of a spare tire carrier to ship my jeep out to guam. They were Very understanding. The spare tire carrier is an absolute hit here in guam. Very military friendly. Again I can’t express my love for the company, the customer service and the product. Thank you a million times over!!!

Easy install, and part was cut perfectly to specifications. Would highly suggest as a replacement to the factory panel for those that want to install switches with a clean look.

Fairly straightforward installation. I struggled with both back factory holes. I was not able to use the supplied bolts as the holes did not quite line up so used some smaller bolts that i had around. Not sure if it was the frame tweaked or the hitch itself. Works awesome and met all my expectations. Highly recommend.

I haven't had the chance to burn these in yet, but they are BEEFY. I have absolutely zero concerns these will hold up to any punishment I put them through. Another great product from HK Offroad!!

This is an incredible product. The Sandwich Plates make it very easy to install. The hardest part of the installation was removing the old Roadmaster Towbar bracket from the previous owner. I love how solid it feels! Thank you for selling this as bare metal. I chose a "Heavy Silver" powder coat finish which allows the tow bar to stand out.

Great kit, fitment is perfect. Shant communicates promptly and it is a pleasure to make a purchase from someone who cares about customer service and the product he sells! Thank you for all the help.

Worth the wait!!! The craftsmanship and quality of the mount is fantastic. Very little modification was needed for a positive fit. Future buyers need to be aware of the plastic work needed for the Limited bumper. Patience and very small cuts will get the results the buyer is wanting. A month after install, a group of friends went into the Ozark National Forest during an awesome snow storm for a week of camping and wheeling. I was on the winch line many times. I kept checking the mounting ...

Great product. Super strong, high quality welds. Any time I had questions about the order Bash would reply in less than an hour via email. I even requested a modification to the carrier so the tire would sit flush with the roof since I need to park the Jeep under a carport that I do not own and cannot modify. Since the tire is lower it has more leverage on the struts but they still hold the liftgate open easily. With the lower tire mount, the license plate was blocked but this was easily solved ...

I have not installed yet. I need to send off to the powder coaters. This is the second product I've bought from Bash. I am above happy, impressed, excited. So well built and beautiful! l'm tempted to hang it on my wall like a piece of art. Can't say enough. Customer service is amazing is top notch as well. Thanks again and happy jeeping!

I have not gone on the trail or needed to use it on the trail yet, but at some point I definitely will, and I am glad that I have it. 1- It fits my needs. 2- For the trail, it is a good choice and one of the more necessary upgrades for a stock Jeep Grand Cherokee, (Laredo), WJ because, for me, it is much more affordable in comparison to a heavy-duty bumper/winch-mount, combo. etc. and it weighs a lot less, particularly being able to use it for a removable winch that can be stored in the garage...

Can't say enough good things about HK Offroad and their products. Best Quality, Functional and look amazing. This is not my first HK Offroad purchase and it will definitely not be my last. Thanks to Bash and crew for such badass products!

The HK hidden winch mount is fantastic. The installation went really well and it’s as solid as can be. Fortunately I’ve only used it for pulling bushes this far, but I’m totally prepared and expect it to meet any demand I throw at it when the time comes.

I finally found a day without snow and freezing temperatures to install my new HK Off-road WJ front receiver! And is it BEEFY🥩🥩🥩!!! It’s probably the strongest part of my whole Jeep. Very easy to install and looks great - thanks HK Off-road!! Aj from Nj

GateKeeper - WJ Radiator Skid Plate w/ 8 Tubes

Alan C.

I was able to pick up my bumper in person and after fitting it on my jeep, I took it off for powder coating. It came out fantastic. The bumper is a tight fit with the AC condenser but tucks behind my stock bumper easily with some cutting to clear the radiator support and an opening for the winch. I've already used the winch and recovery points and I never had any concern that they would fail. This bumper is well built and much better quality than the aftermarket bumper I had previously.

Absolutely awesome tire carrier! Alot of design and function in this. Absolutely impressed. The only thing I'm not impressed with is how long it takes to get one. From time of order to at my door was 3 months. It's worth the wait, but don't expect it next week...

Very well made. Heavy duty, solid and great welds. Installation was a perfect fit for for my 2004 Jeep WJ Laredo. They look great paired with some 3/4” D-Rings.

J. E. G.

I have posted a review on Jeep Forum which is very complimentary, owing to the fact that the product is exceptionally made and fit very well. Installation was held up only a day because of powder coating, my choice, and because I had follow up questions of Bash. Once he straightened me out, BAM, it was complete. Thank you very much Bash, and HK Offroad. A very, very satisfied customer.

Thought I would share a picture with the winch mounted. Receiver is extremely well made and durable. I daily drive the Jeep with the winch removed and install it for trail use. The receiver is high in front and hasn’t compromised approach angle on the trail. I have used the recovery tabs and receiver multiple times and it shows no wear or tear at all after a year of use.

I like everything about the Kratos...the install was a little tricky, but all in all a very well built and great product! I would highly recommend! I can’t wait to add another HKoffroad product to my build in the near future! One thing I would like to add...what would your recommendation be for counterweight?

Heavy Duty AF! Great build and finish. And you do not have to have an issue to understand the excellent customer service. They update you before you can even ask about your build. Thanks HK

i bought the hidden winch mount. its a great product and with any mechanical abilities at all its easy to install. i did it myself in my drive way (would recommend a second hand). i wocld have been able to complete in one dav but paint takes a while to dry in Wash. in Dec. The down side was waiting for it to arive. i ordered it in Sept. a recived it in Dec. if you choose to precious just be patient it will arive and you will be extremely satisfied with the results

Love it. Great ingenuity, and love the product. Even better customer service . I was a total PITA, and Bash not only put up with me, but went above and beyond. I am a big fan of the tire carrier, and even more so of HK Offroad.

Looked at other options, but the HK Hidden winch mount looked to be the highest quality and didn't compromise approach angle. Picked it up in person since I'm local and the guys were helpful and friendly. Installing the mount took some time (I'm picky), but was not difficult at all. Plus, the unit was MASSIVE compared to the stock sheet metal! All the parts needed to finish the job were included and fit correctly without modification. I placed a 12k winch in the mount and it fit perfectly. Now n...

Bash, I was hesitant to take the sawzall to the front of a perfectly good Jeep, but after a few measurements and a little patience, it went together like a glove. The hardest part was notching the plastic bumper cover. Thanks for offering a great and thought out solution to the WJ owners that want a recovery solution that looks like it could have came from the factory.

Would like to say that I have made the best purchase ever of this HK Off-road Street Sweeper. It is built like a tank to withstand a punishment…fits like a glove and is the most beautiful addition to my JEEP WJ. Thank you for the artistry that your hands have to offer Bash. You do great work…….

Arrived a little tweaked from shipping, but nothing terrible. Welds look awesome, and the carrier itself is STOUT. I currently have a 295/70R17 mounted on it, and it has no issue holding it. I’m 220lbs, and able to use it climb on and stand when putting my RTT up or packing it down. I wasn’t able to find instructions for install, but after watching a quick YouTube video, everything went together pretty pain free. I can’t recommend this carrier enough. If you’re on the fence, you won’t regret ...

Great product and would definitely recommend. The struts lift my 35x12.5 easily. Installation was really easy too. Great customer support, Bash was there helping me with quick answers to any questions I had.

Johnathon C.

Install was straight forward. Hardest part was doing the cutting, make sure ya measure twice cut once on the bumper cover. Have gotten several compliments about how clean the installed winch looks. Would highly recommend.

The Kratos is awesome! Took my rig on rough road with some whoops, no problems. I have a 35/12.5r17 on it and the lift gate opens right up. (Even the wife can open it. LOL) All & all a great product! Would recommend to all WK owners with lifted rigs.

Thomas M.

2004 WJ. Was a long ordeal to get the winch mount. But Very happy I stayed with it. The fit was perfect. And if you know anything about this sort of part a perfect fit is hard. Very well made. One thought on the instructions.... Use a long saws all metal blade and do the frame cut in one shot. Very easy install. As we bought a house after the install I've not mounted a winch yet........ But Rock rails are next. Very happy with the quality All in all well done. Tom

Love, love this mount. Unbelievable design. Top notch craftsmanship. HK fills the WJ market gap, with sincere top level design and build. I'm a supporter, and can't express how impressed I am with everything they do from customer to service, to turning out a high qulity project.

I cut the bumper fascia high enough to see the HK logo (was thinking about highlighting it). It went in super easy (all by myself if you don't count the Sawzall and the jigsaw) and I even dug the jokes in the install steps. Recommend highly. It was worth the wait.

Awesome. bolt holes lined up perfect with the hidden winch mount I previously installed. I feel like the front end is protected now. I sprayed the parts with clear coat cuz the bare metal looked so good

It is hard to see the gatekeeper in the picture but the radiator support with the winch plate welded in a 1 piece design was perfect, the craftsmanship was impressive. I highly recommend

My tire carrier is currently awaiting powder coat, but initial mockup and mounting is done. Customer service from Bash is second to none. He helped me address a few hiccups I had during install. Ill be posting a install video for my xj once I test fit Bash's new strut brackets and get final install done. Even with hiccups along my install i would buy this tire carrier again.
