I am getting my winch soon. However I have a 3 inch body lift. So how does this effect the front where the body is mounted in the front. It is lifted 3" so what is recommended for the mounting plate. Also the body lift will be coming out in about 2 months. I would like to put the winch on this week so need help fast..

Most aftermarket mounting plates bolt directly to the frame so your body lift will have little effect on it.

The winch will make you're Jeep look prettier. http://www.bc4x4.com/ubb/smile.gif It will cover up that nasty body lift gap in the front.

Did you have to make any changes to the steering for your 3inch body lift??
