Video Transcript for Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches Spec Review

Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Replacement Mounting Plate for the Bulldog Winch Trailer Winches. Now, this replacement mounting plate is designed specifically for part numbers BDW10039 and 10040 trailer winches. If you have one of those models, then this plate is going to fit your winch perfectly. It's made for those models. The plate is made from a very durable steel construction. It's going to feature a black powder coated finish so it's going to do a great job at resisting rust and corrosion.

Now, just the mounting plate is included so hardware is not. You will have to provide your own hardware, use your old hardware, or get some new hardware to get the winch mounted to this plate. You'll notice here that it has the large area for the wiring to come out, or whatever type of rope or wiring that your winch uses. It's got the attachment points for your fairlead, and it's got a multi-hole design for mounting the winch to the actual plate. Now, four main holes are going to be what holds the winch to the plate. That's this hole, this hole, this hole, and this hole.

You can tell that because those holes are beveled on the bottom that way the hardware sits flush on the underside. Those holes, so measuring from this one to this one center on center, those are going to be separated by 10". Then center on center front to back, they are separated by 4-1/2". Now, when it comes to the overall measurements of this plate, very front to very back measures about 7-3/8 of an inch. Then going side to side so edge to edge going this direction, that's going to give us a measurement of right around 20". That's going to do it for today's look at the Replacement Mounting Plate for Bulldog Winch Trailer Winches..

Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches - BDW20291

Average Customer Rating:  4.8 out of 5 stars   (28 Customer Reviews)


by:

This is a nicely fabricated part that, quite frankly, should be included with the winch since you can't mount the hawse pipe for the winch without it.



by:

This plate is as strong as it get's! Super Fast shipping and Customer service well it just doesn't get any better! They definitely have a customer for life!



by:

Good it fits my 17.5k Smittybuilt winch it would be better if the plate was longer and wider you have to weld the fairlead on cause there isn’t enough room for the bolts



by:

I bought this Bulldog winch mounting plate for my Badland 9000 lb winch because I was able to confirm through the very helpful people at etrailer.com that the mounting bolt pattern was identical to the pattern on my winch. One huge benefit of this plate are the countersunk holes for the winch on the underside of the plate which allowed me to mount flush to my trailer's wood deck without having to alter my trailer to accommodate hex head bolts typically used with other plates. Additionally, this plate works perfectly with the fairlead that came with my winch.



by:

Winch trailer mount is just what I needed, was going to make it myself but after seeing this I adapted it for my needs! Mounted an M8000 (overkill) to it installed 5/16 chain hooks to it then wrap a chain around solid tree to winch and guide decaying dangerous leaning ash trees over my house, not enough room for truck to winch from. Thanks to Brenden it arrived very quickly! I will be a customer whenever I need another item you have! Thanks for outstanding service,



by:

The mounting plate was received promptly and is of very high quality. It is as advertised and will work wonderfully for my use.

  • What Is the Capacity of the Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches
    The Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches part # BDW20291 can be mounted to a flat-bed trailer using the Bulldog Winch Hardware for Universal Mounting Plate for Truck Winches part # BDW20297. The winch plate will first be set into place where you want to position it, then drilled and bolted to the frame. The plate has counter sunk holes which you'll use with the above hardware to attach the plate to the frame. There isn't a rated capacity as it all comes down...

  • Winch Mounting Plate Needed for Aluma 82 Series Car Hauler Trailer
    While we do have a variety of winch mounting options, I can't say for certain that any of them are a specific replacement for your Aluma Series 82 car trailer. With that being said, we do have a universal winch mounting plate as part # BDW20291 which you'll want to pair with the mounting hardware # BDW20297 to complete the setup. If this works then great! If not, then I recommend reaching out to Aluma about that part directly.

  • Front Wiring Kit Recommendation for 18.5K Bulldog Winch Heavy-Duty Series Off-Road Winch
    The wiring kit I recommend using to power your Bulldog Winch Heavy-Duty Series Off-Road Winch # BDW44FR at the front of your truck is found as part # BDW20025. This comes with 2 Anderson-style connectors and 7-1/2' of wiring to reach from your battery to the front of your truck. If you don't already have a mounting plate I recommend checking out the Universal Mounting Plate # BDW20291 and using the Mounting Hardware # BDW20297 to complete your installation. Attached are some review videos...

  • Bulldog Winch and Mounting Bracket For a 2019 Toyota 4Runner
    I have a couple options for you as the Bulldog Winch Off-Road Winch Mounting Plate for Toyota Tacoma Gen III # BDW23001 is only confirmed to fit the Gen 3 Tacoma and they do not have a separate plate for your 2019 Toyota 4Runner. First you can have a custom mounting plate created using the Universal Mounting Plate # BDW20291. This will need to be completed at a fabrication facility near you. Or you can use the Bulldog Winch Receiver Mount Kit # BDW20155 with a front mount receiver....

  • Will Warn 17081 Fit Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches

  • Winch Mounting Plate Recommendation for Bulldog Winch # BDW10041 On Floor of Utility Trailer
    A better solution for a mounting plate for the Bulldog Winch part # BDW10041 that you mentioned would be the universal mounting bracket part # BDW20291 which is larger than the mount you mentioned. Then for hardware we have the part # BDW20297 which fits the countersunk holes of the mount.

  • Bulldog Universal Winch Mounting Plate Dimensions
    The Bulldog Universal mounting plate # BDW20291 has overall dimensions of 7-3/8 by 20 inches. The plate is 1/4 inch thick and the fairlead portion sits up about 4-1/2 inches according to my contact at Bulldog. The holes for the fairlead are 10 inches apart center to center. You will want the hardware # BDW20297 for the recessed holes outlined in the attached video.

  • Recommended Mounting Plate for a Vehicle Winch on 2016 ATC Open Trailer
    Easiest way will be to use the winch plate mount part # BDW20291 that you mentioned but attach it to the floor of the trailer at the very front to a crossmember of the frame. To mount in the V area of the A-frame is possible but it would require quite a bit of modification ot the trailer.

  • Will Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate Attach to Bulldog Stubby Bumper Without Drilling
    I spoke with my contact at Bulldog regarding the Bulldog Stubby Front Bumper # BDW21000 on your 1997 Jeep TJ. He stated that the Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate # BDW20291 referenced in your question will also require some drilling for it to be mounted on this bumper. He stated that the Bulldog Winch Mounting Plate Kit # BDW20009 will be the better option for a no-drill application. It will need to be trimmed a bit to fit around the light bar, but you should not need to drill any...

  • Mounting Plate Options for the Bulldog Winch Standard Series Off-Road Winch # BDW10043
    You can either use the Universal Mounting Plate # BDW20291 (which requires the hardware kit # BDW20297) or the Hitch Mounting Plate # BDW20011 for your Bulldog Winch Standard Series Off-Road Winch # BDW10043. Both have compatible mounting hole dimensions (10" x 4-1/2") so it just depends on where and how you plan on using the winch.

  • Recommended Mounting Plate to Mount 9K Badland Winch Onto Car Trailer
    I recommend using the Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches # BDW20291 for your Badland Winch, which has a 4-Bolt mounting pattern (center on center) of 10" x 4-1/2". For hardware you will want to use the Bulldog Winch Hardware for Universal Mounting Plate for Truck Winches # BDW20297.

  • Will the Bulldog Universal Winch Mounting Plate Work W/ A Badlands 9.5K Winch?
    Yes, assuming your Badlands 9500 winch uses a standard 10" x 4-1/2" mounting pattern. You'll want to confirm with Badlands, however worst case scenario you'd have to just drill out your own mounting holes. I did check to see if there was a proprietary winch mounting plate offered by Badlands for their winches, and it looks like there is one but it's virtually the same thing as # BDW20291 just with the Badlands name in-front of it, so I'd say you'll be fine.

  • Recommended Winch To Pull A 2000 lb Pontoon Boat Up A 45 Degree Incline Transitioning To 30 Degrees
    For this application, I reached out to my contact at Bulldog Winch and we came up with what we believe is what you will need based on the information you gave me. There are many factors involved here, so we are trying to cover all the bases for you and make it easy. I will give you our recommendation for using the oak tree to mount the winch, and using the 4x4 truck to power it. I recommend the Bulldog Winch Standard Series Off-Road Winch - Wire Rope - Roller Fairlead - 8,000 lbs, #...

  • Universal Bulldog Winch Mounting Plate For 2000 Ford F-150
    I do have an option for you but the Bulldog Winch Universal Mounting Plate for Truck and Trailer Winches part # BDW20291 is designed more for open flat deck trailers, it may work for you but will probably require some drilling. The Bulldog Winch Universal Winch Mounting Plate for Truck part # BDW20008 is a better option which has a standard winch mounting bolt pattern of 10" long x 4-1/2" center to center hole spacing. I recommend to compare the hole spacing on the plate to what your hitch...

  • Universal Winch Mount for Use on Tractor
    We have Universal Winch Mounting Plates like # BDW20291 that you referenced and also # BDW20019, as well as hitch mount types like # BDW20155. Universal mount # BDW20291 can use hardware kit # BDW20297. Since the front ends of Massey Ferguson tractors vary quite a bit you'll need to decide which mount is best for your install.
