Will the Roadmaster Base Plates for a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Work With Winch Mounted On Bumper

Im also thinking of installing a winch in the steel bumper, will your base plate work with a winch installed?

The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-521453-5 which is a fit for a 2020 Jeep Gladiator installs in place of the tow hooks. I have attached a photo for you of this as well as an install video to give you a better idea of how it mounts. In regards to compatibility with a winch, this all depends on where the winch would sit but if it mounts on top of the bumper then I don't see any issues. I have attached for you below as well the rest of the parts you'd need to complete your flat-towing setup.
