Matthew C. review of Front Tow Hitch Receiver w/ Shackle Tabs (WJ/WK/XK) - Heavy Duty image 1 out of 1

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.

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...

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 ...

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.

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.

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…….

Great bit of kit, very well designed and built fitted onto my 2002 WG 4.7 H.O. with no problems at all. Bash was amazingly helpfull and promised it would fit the Britsh Jeep and he was good as his word. Big thank you from this side of the pond.

Jason K.
I ordered these as my first major upgrade to my WJ requiring cutting for the sole purpose of superior underbody protection and they did not disappoint. I only have a 2” spacer lift and front sway bar disconnects with 31” tires. I also have an aftermarket transfer case skid plate along with these rocker replacement sliders and they provided all of the protection I could have needed for where it counts. I installed these literally the day before leaving for a trip, and they were used and abused. T...

Bash is the best- Awesome service and awesome products. I spent a ton of time relocating my M8000s solenoid and made a custom wiring and clutch set up to make it work, and I think it payed off. High quality, and the best looking setup you can buy. Thanks HK!

Within minutes of my inquiry with HK Offroad, I received a text from Bash confirming my order with the exact specifications I needed for the Blue Ox shackle-mounted tow bar for flat-towing my 2018 Jeep JL behind our motorhome. Bash discussed the architectural welds he would use for maximum strength and boy-howdy did he surpass my expectations! I've flat-towed previous jeeps across the country over 100k miles without a single issue. After installing these ultra beefy shackle tabs and 2 days la...

Got the hidden winch mount. And boy is durable as heck. All bolted on here is holding roughly 700 pounds. I have great faith in this product. It was solid as hell with awesome beautiful welds.. I have no doubt this piece of equipment will overchieve anything thrown at it!

Not a bad install took me roughly 4 hours to put winch mount and brush guard. Pro tip when you cut frame make sure to get it flat and clean to the rails so it slides on easy I had to use an angle grinder to clean up my cuts with the air saw. Very solid me and my 250lb friend jumped on it not a single budge high quality. Would recommend to others.

I could not be happier than I am with this Roof rack. Great quality and craftsmanship. It’s awesome to have a low profile style roof rack that is streamlined to fit the curves of the WJ roof line perfectly. Easy to install and solid as a rock!!!

Another quality part from Bash at HK. Install went easy, just take your time drilling. Used double sided tape as a gasket and RTV to seal the rivnuts and holes from OEM rack. Super confident that these will be plenty strong enough to hold my large RTT.

Once again Bash and the HK team killed it with another awesome product. This thing is built incredibly well. I have the glissade sliders on my jeep as well. If you are on the edge about buying one...... JUST DO IT!!!!! Its worth every penny. Last trip I went on I had to pull a sizeable tree off the trail. This thing didn't even blink. ZERO bending, creaking, or movement. To be honest I'm pretty sure I could lift the jeep by it and it would be fine. Thanks again for another great product and keep...

Great product. Fit just find with trying to trim as little as possible to fit the stock bumper and still making look like its not even there. The only problem I had with it is that the hood support bars were a little long and push the hood up a little bit.

HKOffRoad never fails. Great tire carrier! Install was straight forward and as Bash says in the instructions, "measure 4 times drill once". Very solid and very happy with purchase. Whats next? perhaps a roof rack? We'll see. Thanks Bash. You make great stuff.

All things considered, the install was not as challenging as I anticipated it being. The directions on the HK website more or less cover it all. When mounting the hidden winch via sandwich plates in the frame rails, you will have to drill out the farthest back bolt for mounting, which is something I did not find to be as clear/in order in the instructions. Once the grill was on, the hood release from the cabin was not properly working. It seems the hood is not able to go 100% of the way down a...

Excellent winch mount. It appears sturdy and the welds are good quality. it mounted pretty easily (a little bit of boring with a tungsten carbide tool was needed, but it was minor), and it looks great. There are also no holes on the winch mount to faster the bumper/OEM plastic under-guard, but you can just ziptie the two together. My Zeak 13000 winch and 3/4 shackles fit without issue. Making the cuts to fit the mount through the bumper can be tricky, but if you take your time it is not that har...

Tough as. Welding quality is a work of art. Fitment is mm precision. The front hitch is priceless and so practical. I can launch my boat at the beach and winch it back on the trailer. Thanks for an awesome product guys - Chris, Australia

I worked with Bash to come up with a design. And with a couple text messages and pix sent. TaDa… The Rhino Hook was born. With all the designing and fabrication. I got my bumper within three weeks. Bash was amazing to work with and a big help understanding what I wanted. As for the bumper/ hidden winch mount. It’s no where near as heavy as I was thinking. But man is it beefy. There is no doubt that this thing won’t come apart. The welds look amazing. Thank you to everyone who had a hand in makin...

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.

We added these to our 2024 Rubicon. Heavy duty and the perfect solution for flat-towing and recovery. We used a drill press to drill out the red hooks and the finished product looks great! Bash was patient and promptly answered all of our questions. Would recommend to anyone looking for a flat-tow solution without the need for a baseplate.

Bash was awesome to work with in responding to my questions. The quality of my winch mount shows it will perform and last as advertised. Installation was easy, the hard part was cutting the facia. This is a much better way to keep the winch protected and away from unwanted eyes. Thanks Bash. Rick in Cabo.

Bash was able to make me a custom order one. Where he left the front off the winch box so I could build my own bumper to the winch box. This winch box is stout and has a great mounting system mounts all the way back to the front skid plate bolt hole. Thank you so much Bash for your help and for the product. Also thank you for sending me some decals to rock on the jeep for you.

Purchased Street Sweeper hidden winch mount modified by Bash to fit my Apex 12000 winch. Great product!! Perfect fit and great quality. Sent a question on Sunday night expecting an answer Monday when they opened. 20 minutes later Bash responded while he and his wife were traveling on the highway and his wife texted me the info I needed right away...I mean who does that now days?

After getting caught in flash flooding and wishing I had an easier front recovery point, I decided to install a set of these. Man, these things are beefy! I painted mine silver to compliment some of my trim, and it looks amazing. Get compliments all the time. And best of all I know I have a strong attachment point should I ever need it to help myself or someone else.

Install was a breeze with the instructions. I cut the bumper high enough to read the HK logo. Why not show it off? The only negative is that it didn't come with a sticker for the window. I'll get over it. Altogether worth the wait.

Another high quality product from Bash and the gang at HK Offroad. Install was a breeze. It mated up perfectly with the mounting points for the hidden winch mount, but I did have to trim about 3/8" off the top to clear the bottom of the A/C condenser. With a little spray on undercoating it looks like it could be a factory part. Though not an expensive part by any means, the peace of mind knowing my radiator isn't hanging out there to be crushed is priceless. Thanks HK Offroad for another qualit...

Much stronger than OEM tow hooks…no comparison! Looks incredible and build quality is second to none. Easy install, just a little work with a grinder. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase.
