Parts:
LOD Signature Winch Plate
Harbor Freight universal fairlead mount
Two hawse fairleads from Amazon
Bolted in LOD winch plate and Smittybilt X20 winch, bolted HF fairlead mount to the bottom of that, and cut out all the plastic and metal in the center. Kept trimming till look and clearances were right.
The two Amazon hawse fairleads will be sandwiched behind the visible fairlead / bumper and in front of the HF fairlead mount. I need to find two bolts for this so I will post when done. This will create a solid aluminum sandwich up front that is very sturdy for the cable to pass through and hold the plastic in the center rock solid. The two together were a perfect fit between the plastic and the fairlead mount.
Outside wings seem as solid as before. All the metal and plastic is still in them.
Plan to finish it off with the bright silver Mojave skid plate underneath.
