Chief Products WK2 Hidden Winch Mount provides a high-strength place to mount your winch without ruining your Jeep's good looks. We've engineered a winch mounting system that can remain completely hidden while still being 100% compatible with all of your Jeep's safety systems (air bags, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning and parking sensor systems). It delivers numerous industry leading features - including an engineer certified 10,000lb max rating, E-Coat Corrosion Protection and a very low 12.85kg install weight. By positioning the winch between the chassis structure (lower than our competitors) we're able to provide significantly improved cooling, better off-axis strength, as well as more space for larger winches. Best of all, we spent (12) months performing rigorous real world testing to ensure you can rely on our winch mounting system when you need it most.

High-StrengthWe've engineered our hidden winch system from the ground-up to evenly distribute recovery forces to the chassis of the WK2. This unique approach is especially important during high load pulls and off-axis recoveries that can easily twist (and sometimes even tear) the monocoque chassis of the WK2. Unlike our competitors, we mount to the chassis in multiple locations and strategically use high-strength steels to ensure recovery forces are evenly distributed and don't overload the chassis mounting points. Through FEA computer modelling and (12) months of real world testing we've delivered a high-strength winch mounting system that you can rely on when you need it most.
Maintain OEM AppearanceThe WK2 Hidden Winch Mount can be installed behind your bumper and lower front fascia, maintaining the great looks of your Jeep Grand Cherokee. Then if needed you can still easily remove the lower front fascia when heading off-road.
Low Installed WeightOnly 12.85kg when fully installed. This is extremely light when compared to a Bull Bar which often weighs 40kgs (alloy) - 90kgs (steel).
Better CoolingBy positioning our winch cradle lower than our competitors, we're able to achieve significantly better air flow to the radiator, which delivers much better cooling in hot weather. This is especially important if you're towing or have additional items (off-road lights, etc.) restricting airflow to the radiator core.
Lower Winch PositionOur lower winch position provides numerous benefits. In addition to providing significantly better cooling, it also enables installation of taller winches, doesn’t interfere with number plate mounting and positions the winch directly between the frame rails for maximum strength.
Maximum Approach AngleSince our design doesn't extend past the front of your WK2, the maximum approach angle is retained.
Compatible With Adaptive Cruise ControlThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a hidden winch mounting system that is compatible with the adaptive cruise control system on all WK2 models.
Compatible With Parking SensorsThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a winch mount that is compatible with parking sensors on all WK2 models.
Compatible With Our Entire Product LineAlready own our WK2 Lower Front Guard, WK2 Sump Protection Plate, WK2 Recovery Hooks, WK2 Recovery Points or WK2 Nudge Bar? We’ve designed the WK2 Hidden Winch Mount to integrate easily with all of our products.
Compatible With Excellent Front Recovery OptionsCan be installed with OEM Tow Hooks or Chief Products WK2 Recovery Points & WK2 Recovery Hooks (engineer rated to 4,500kg).
Industry Leading Corrosion ProtectionWe utilise E-Coat (Electrophoretic Coating) to provide the very highest corrosion protection available for steel automotive parts. Deposited from a water-based solution using a high voltage DC charge, the process coats all wet surfaces with an extremely tough and highly corrosion resistant finish that is unlike any other process. On top of that industry-leading electrophoretic coating we apply 80µm of extremely durable powder coat (advanced polyester thermosetting powder). Finally, whenever possible we build our products with highly corrosion resistant materials and fasteners (stainless steel, aluminium alloys, etc.) to provide enduring protection against corrosion when a coating is scratched or damaged off-road.
Real World TestingThere aren’t many off-road companies who own a WK2 as their daily driver, or regularly take it all over Australia in search of off-road adventures. In our opinion, that extra testing and passionate attention to performance leads to superior products.
Top Quality Finishing TouchesWe include all the details that matter. High tensile zinc plated bolts for maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Wedge-Lock washers to create bolted joints that are extremely resistant to loosening. Anti-Seize for bolted joints that are resistant to seizing. A Chief Products Shop Rag for all the dirty jobs around the garage. All packaged with extreme care to arrive safely and looking great. -

DO NOT EXCEED THE WORKING LOAD LIMIT OF THIS PRODUCT AT ANY TIME. The Working Load Limit of this product is significantly less for non-straight line pull forces.
* CAUTION *
Every recovery situation has the potential for personal injury. In order to minimise that risk, it is important to familiarise yourself with the proper operation of your recovery equipment before using it, and be constantly safety oriented. -
High StrengthEngineer rated to 4,500kg WLL (1.5 times GVM of WK2). 1.5 times GVM is considered the engineering minimum standard for recovery points. A 3,000kg GVM vehicle stuck in deep mud/sand needs a high-strength recovery point to safely withstand the forces encountered during recovery. Our engineer rating jumps to 8,000kg when our recovery points are used as a pair with a bridle strap.
Winch CompatibilityIf you're installing a winch (or plan to be recovered by one) you'll want a recovery attachment point that is up to the task. For a 10,000lb winch you'll want a recovery attachment point with a minimum WLL of 4,500kg.
SafetyIn addition to the engineer rated design, our recovery point also features a 5mm radius on all exposed edges. This ensures safe use with soft shackle recovery gear, while also meeting the required government safety standards (Australian Design Rules as well as various European Pedestrian Safety Standards). The closed loop design delivers a 'Closed Recovery System' ensuring recovery gear won't fall off during recovery. Finally, while our recovery point protrudes through the opening in the lower fascia for easy attachment of recovery gear, it doesn't extend beyond the front most part of the bumper.
Ease Of UseThe large 55mm eyelet makes attachment of recovery gear extremely easy. The closed loop design ensures recovery gear won't fall off during recovery. The recovery point protrudes far enough beyond the lower fascia to ensure side recoveries are easily possible.
CompatibilityEngineered to be 100% compatible with all of our products, as well as all of your Jeep's safety systems. Designed so they can be easily installed on either side of the vehicle (Drivers or Passengers).
Easy To InstallWe provide easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. If you're half-way decent with a wrench you can easily install this yourself. We've even designed the mounting brackets so they're reversible, to make things as easy as possible.

Excellent Approach AngleSince our design doesn't extend below the mounting brackets, the approach angle (an important aspect off-road) is significantly better than other nudge bars.
Parking Sensor CompatibilityThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a nudge bar that is 95% compatible with the parking sensors on all WK2 models.
High StrengthOur innovative mounting system uses steel tabs on the bottom of each bar to lock the bar securely to (2) 20mm high-strength steel mounting arms. This high-strength design means there will be minimal vibrations for your accessories when you're off-road.
Highly Scratch ResistantBy using 304 Stainless Steel (which has a higher hardness rating than Aluminium) we're able to provide a nudge bar with much better scratch & wear resistance.
Low Installed WeightOnly 10.6kg when fully installed. This is extremely light when compared to a Bull Bar which often weighs 40kgs (alloy) - 90kgs (steel).
Accommodates Numerous Lighting & Accessory OptionsThe accessory mounting tab is slotted across its entire length, allowing you to install lights or accessories however you choose.
Contoured To FitThe accessory mounting tab is contoured to match the curvature of the WK2 grille, so it integrates perfectly with the front of the WK2.
Compatible With Front Recovery PointsCan be installed with Chief Products WK2 Recovery Hooks & WK2 Recovery Points, (which can be installed on driver & passenger sides and are engineer rated to 4,500kg). Due to mounting restrictions, many nudge bars don't allow you to install any front recovery points with their bar.
Compatible With Adaptive Cruise ControlThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a nudge bar that is compatible with the adaptive cruise control system on all WK2 models.
Guards Against Damage During RecoveryThe mounting brackets are designed to stop recovery straps or bow shackles from hitting the bar during an off-road recovery.
Easy To InstallWe provide easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. If you're half-way decent with a wrench you can easily install this yourself. We've even designed the mounting brackets so they swivel slightly during installation to make things as easy as possible.
Industry Leading Corrosion ProtectionWe utilise E-Coat (Electrophoretic Coating) to provide the very highest corrosion protection available for steel automotive parts. Deposited from a water-based solution using a high voltage DC charge, the process coats all wet surfaces with an extremely tough and highly corrosion resistant finish that is unlike any other process. On top of that industry-leading electrophoretic coating we apply 80µm of extremely durable powder coat (advanced polyester thermosetting powder). Finally, whenever possible we build our products with highly corrosion resistant materials and fasteners (stainless steel, aluminium alloys, etc.) to provide enduring protection against corrosion when a coating is scratched or damaged off-road.
Mirror Polish That LastsOur mirror polished 304 Stainless Steel keeps looking good for longer. Polished aluminium bars tend to develop a white haze from oxidation that causes them to lose their lustre.
Top Quality Finishing TouchesWe include all the details that matter. Electrophoretic Coating on all mounting plates. High tensile bolts for maximum strength. Wedge-Lock washers to create bolted joints that are extremely resistant to loosening. Anti-Seize for bolted joints that are resistant to seizing. A Chief Products Shop Rag for all the dirty jobs around the garage. All packaged with extreme care to arrive safely and looking great. -
