The winch guard's low-profile design adds protection without obstructing your [click for more...] line of sight. It is made of strong 3/16" hot-rolled steel and 1 3/4" steel tubing. The guard protects the winch from damage when out on the trail while providing no loss in approach angle like typical bulky front bumpers. The winch guard comes with welded-on shackle mount recovery points for when you or others are stuck on the trail.

The winch guard bolts directly to the MetalCloak frame-built front bumper system for a quick and easy installation. All hardware is included to secure the winch guard into place. The winch guard comes in MetalCloak's signature black textured powder coat to protect it against corrosion and rust while being abused out on the trail.

The winch guard is a modular part for your MetalCloak bumper; add accessories like a winch hook, license plate adapter, or fairlead. If you want to customize the look of your front bumper, check out the hi-mount stinger or any of our other bumper options to change to a fresh configuration for your Jeep.

Note: All TJ/LJ/YJ Hoops come with weld-on shackles.

Note: Shackle mounts are engineered to be used as recovery points only; the shackle mounts are NOT designed for flat-towing.
