Receiver-ready
A 50 mm shank fits a compatible 2-inch receiver, so the winch can be removed or transferred instead of being permanently fixed in place.
Built for Australian 4WD recovery
Add recovery capability without permanently mounting a winch to one end of your vehicle. Fit the plate to a compatible 2-inch receiver, secure it with the hitch pin and remove it again when the job is done.
Designed around real vehicle setups
A 50 mm shank fits a compatible 2-inch receiver, so the winch can be removed or transferred instead of being permanently fixed in place.
Folding side arms help stabilise the assembly against the vehicle and fold down neatly when the mount is stored.
Integrated fairlead slots and multiple mounting holes suit common winch and fairlead patterns.
A 6 mm steel plate with a black powder-coated finish helps resist knocks, weather and corrosion.
Flexible by design
A fixed winch stays at one end of one vehicle. This receiver mount gives compatible 4WDs, work utes and trailers a more flexible option.
Check the fit before checkout
Compare your receiver, winch bolt pattern, fairlead spacing and vehicle clearance before ordering.
Straightforward installation concept
Bolt your compatible winch and fairlead to the plate with correctly rated hardware and follow the winch manufacturer's instructions.
Slide the shank into a compatible rated 2-inch receiver and secure it with the hitch pin and retaining clip.
Position the support arms, check every clearance and complete a no-load function test before recovery use.
Compatibility and safety
The plate does not increase the rating of your receiver, recovery points, winch, rope or vehicle. Confirm every component is appropriate for the intended load and recovery direction.
ReceiverCompatible 2-inch opening with an appropriate recovery rating.

No. This listing is for the mounting plate and pictured installation hardware only. The winch, fairlead, wiring and vehicle are not included.
The main benefit is removability. Take the assembly off when it is not needed, keep it dry and inspect the plate, pin, fasteners and coating before each use.
