Which Roadmaster Baseplate Kit Is Compatible With 2024 Jeep Wrangler With Factory Winch

Question:

Roadmaster states the RM-521453-5 wont work with the factory installed winch and winch base plate. I think its due to interference with the MOPAR baseplate reinforcement that connects to the inside of the lower frame horn. See attached pictures. They have a new base plate RM-521463-5 they recommend for the 2024 JL with factory steel bumper and factory winch. Agree? Is it available through etrailer? Thanks

I agree and it is available. The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM35GR is the same as the 521463-5. This is compatible with the bumper and winch on your 2024 Wrangler. They even made sure to show a picture of the bumper with the winch in the attached instructions.
