Well i mounted the way emp said to in order to see if they had ever made the changes that others were talking about and everything went together smoothly. I took it all back apart and flipped the plate and it wouldn't work. I'm guessing the changes they made are making it were flipping the plate won't work anymore.

All in all i have just under 2 hrs for the complete install with using the emp mount and terra 45. Oh btw I picked the terra 45 up for 199 on jet.com for anyone interested.

Can you post the directions? I'm curious now.. I put mine on a month ago and followed the directions and even the video to a T and it wouldn't work. It had to be rotated 180" and the long tail pointed forward.

I lose mounted everything minis the winch at first.

I ran about 2 threads out of each lock nut for the ears to the plate and slide it all in place.

Next thing I did was hand started all 6 of the bumper bolts.

Then i started the ubolts and tightened them on down.

After that I went to the outside nuts on the ears. The inside ones are extremely difficult to get to. When I started tightening the outside nuts it pulled down on the inside bolts tightening it all up.

Then I finished bolting the bumper in.

When I mounted the winch I used the holes closest to the bumper. I have alot of clearance between the bumper and winch. I will take pics tonight or tomorrow and post em.

So I received my EMP mount and tried mounting my Terra 45 to the plate both ways, the freespool clutch is hard up against the ears of the mount so that I can't even spin it. I'm thinking I did something wrong, or the ears need to be bent a little. With the winch bolted to the plate, the frame clamps wouldn't open enough on the clutch side to slip it over the frame..........

I had to rotate thenolate 180’s to make it work correctly.. no clearance issues other than it’s just a pain.

I would think they’re all mass made and therefore the same.. something doesn’t sound right.

Here I am a year late on this, wish I had searched for this prior to buying.... I just mounted the EMP mount and Superwinch Terra 45....PITA! I first loose fitted it, would not clear front bumper, so rotated plate 180 degrees and got clearance between the winch and bumper. Then mounted the winch to plate, could not rotate the free spool, so had to use two washers between winch and each mounting bolt. Then tightened up the carriage bolts, and then tried to fit bumper back onto the frame mount. The mount had pulled the bumper "arms" towards each other, so had to back the carriage bolts off, then slide it into the frame, then tighten the bolts back up. After all that, I realized I hadn't put the U bolts on (main reason I went with the EMP mount), so tried to put those on, would not fit, so everything came back off, meaning all bolts loosened, to loosen up the u bolt brackets. I got the U bolts thru, barely, got a nut started on each one, then started tightening all the bolts back up. The carriage bolts that go thru the top plate and around the bumper arms are a PITA to tighten when the bumper is on the rig.

Of course the winch is mounted inverted, which the winch directions said not to do, but it looks good, looks like it should pull fairly straight. I do wish the mount would have had better directions, cleared instructions. I'm still not sure I have the plate right side up, and tightening the top plate bolts after it was on the rig was a major PITA.

Monday I will start wiring it up.

What @JTW said.. I like the pull of the winch but there has been a couple of times that I had to do something else where it would have been easier to take off the bumper but all be damned if I am going to mess with those bolts again. Lol
