Expert Reply:

We do not have a list that will list the brands of winches that will fit the Westin HDX Winch Mount Grille Guard # 57-92375, however, this grille guard has maximum winch dimensions of 10-1/2" tall, and 4-1/2" deep.

I did some research and it appears the Badlands Apex winch you mention, measures 10-1/8" tall, and 6-5/16" deep, meaning it will not fit into this winch tray.

Unfortunately, we do not have a grille guard with a winch tray that will fit the Badlands Apex. We do have the Bulldog Winch Hitch Mounted Winch Mounting Plate with Handles # BDW20011, which is large enough to accommodate the Apex winch, however, it is a front mount hitch which means you won't be able to mount the grille guard.
