WJ Overland Hidden Winch Mount

Installing a hidden winch mount from HK Off Road on my 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Overland. This is the first step in getting the Jeep ready to hit the trails. Subscribe to see where the Jeep goes!

Nicely done. I too have the HK Offroad hidden winch mount on my 04 WJ. Just an observation, without being able to get to your winch clutch, you can't free spool the winch out. I ended up cutting a section of the grill out. Not the best solution, but the easiest.

Awesome rig!!! Those Spyder Co. Headlights are amazing. The angular lines match well the lines of the truck. Agressive looking but not too menencing. Beautiful job on the lift.

I am in the process of designing a winch system for my WJ. However, I dont like how the fairlead is mounted so low. Its not in the middle. I came up with a solution, as I am making a custom plate. I am making it so the winch is mounted upside down. This way the cable comes out higher and can go through the fairlead in the middle of the bumper. Ive also designed the bracket in a way so the bumper doesnt need to be cut, as its ugly and destroys the look. The clutch can be engaged by a lever below.

I enjoyed the video a lot! I am debating between the HK and the new IRO winch mount at the moment.

I went with the hk, is cheaper and they look the same

[@MrSrtman18]

What size lift do you have on your jeep? Looks pretty sick with those rubicon wheels.

[@buckeye9252]

What ae those headlights and are you happy with them. I need some for my '03 GC Thanks G

[@BackyardBuilder513]

If you search C bar projector headlights you'll find them. I love them with the LED bulbs I put in them. Suuuper bright and not blinding

[@rockymountboy]

You didn't show us the control box mod!

[@GashHunter]

What size and type of tires are those?

[@BackyardBuilder513]

They were stock BFG mud tires off a 2015 Rubicon JK. About a 32x10

Informative video but loose the creepy music, put on some AC DC.

I only got 9 minutes into the video before I shut it off. Couldn’t handle that stupid music.
