Carry-On winch?

[BryantM4]

Does anyone have any hands-on experience with the Carry-On Trailers 12k truck winch sold at Lowe’s? At $398 with 80+ ft of synthetic line, it makes a very budget friendly option.

Looks capable and will be interesting to find out if anyone has used it and there take on it.

Looks similar to the Tractor Supply "Traveler" winch

Same winch, different name. Cheaper at Walmart

If you have the Rubicon winch capable steel bumper option and the aux switch package, is this bolt on or are there additional parts needed to install?

You need the rubicon steel bumper winch mount that goes behind the bumper.

I'll have to look under the bumper to see if it's there or not. I got the jeep a month ago and the window sticker was still in the vehicle and showed that it was a $1k option on it.

You'll need to look from the top of the bumper, the skid plate will be in your way otherwise. Either you will see a nice (maybe) shiny flat piece of metal, or the top of the skid plate.

If you want to post your window sticker we can easily deduce that as well. I didn't think the Mopar winch plate was order-able from the factory. You might be getting mixed up the phraseology of the steel bumper which says winch ready when in fact it isn't 100%.
