You asked for it - we delivered! There is no better way to mount a winch on your 2010 - 2018RAM 2500 or 3500 Truck!
This 100% bolt-on kit installs a winch perfectly behind your factory bumper. Compatible with all trucks equipped with the 5.7 or 6.4 liter HEMI engine. This kit comes with all the Heavy Duty Steel Bracketry, and hardware to mount a winch with pulling capacities up to 12,000 lbs.
WHAT WINCH SHOULD I CHOOSE?
We've hand picked two winches that work fantastic with our mount, and developed a suite of aftermarket upgrades for them that make using our kit safe, fun and easy.
-They're strong and wont weight down your suspension.
- Completely Waterproof (IP68)
-Equipped with Synthetic Line (safer, lighter, and easier to handle)
-Tons of pulling power in a compact package.
-Clockable clutch handle
- Relocatable Control Box
Our winch mounts are compatible with other medium body winches that use the same bolt pattern (10" x 4.5"). If you'd like to use another brand winch and are unsure if it will fit, pleasesend us a message.
MULTIPLE LIGHTING OPTIONS
It's one thing to be stuck, but it's worse if you can't see! That's why we offer multipleLighting Kitoptions that will illuminate your way or work area. These include brackets that bolt to our hidden winch mount, and include a sealed wiring harness.
We've hand picked quality lights that are of great value. More importantly they integrate seamlessly with our Hidden Winch Mount.
Our most popular light option is the Street Legal SAE Kit. These 3" Cubes throw out a clean beam of light and match to the factory LED Headlight color temperature. They turn on in an instant and focus light down along the road, not the heavens. These are available in a WHITE or YELLOW lens option.
CONTROL BOX RELOCATION KIT
Want the upmost reliability? Of course you do, that's why you're shopping at VICE. Don't forget to add the Control Box Relocation Kit This kit we build moves the brain box of the winch into the engine bay of your truck. This has multiple advantages. Firstly - this makes plugging in your winch controller very easy and safe. Simply pop your hood and plug it in. Secondly - the control box is the least waterproof and most likely part to cause your winch to fail. Moving it to the top of the engine bay keeps the contactors and electrical connections away from submersion in water, mud and road grime. Along with all the pre-made wires, we supply a mount that bolts directly into your engine bay - no drilling any holes.
OH THATS NEAT EH
Another neat component included in the winch mount kit is the Hook Anchor. No longer worry about rattles and scratching the paint on your bumper by letting your winch hook dangle and flap around at the fairlead. Simply slid the hook over the Anchor, and tension the line. Securely mounted, and easily accessed.
COMPATIBILITY
This mounting kit fits all RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks that have the 5.7 or 6.4 HEMI Gas Motors. This kit DOES NOT FIT Trucks with the 6.7 Cummins Diesel Engines due the packaging of its intercooler etc. This kit is compatible with front parking sensors and license plates.
Product was great to install, video on YouTube was a great step by step. Product works great was using it today 3/2/24 up in northern wisconsin!! Great Product folks, you won't be disappointed!!!

Quick install
I was looking at this for months and finally pulled the trigger. It installed nice and easy. I did it myself, but a helper would be nice with the winch. If it did it again I would buy the winch relocation kit from Vice just for ease of install.
On the lights from Vice, the brackets are worth it, they fit up perfect. The lights are nice, but not quite the quality of Baja or Diode. If I did it again I would buy the brackets and get different lights, but they function and supposedly have a lifetime warranty.

The hidden winch mount looks good but was not designed to fit a 2018 Ram 3500 with a diesel engine. I had to do a simple, minor modification to the winch mount to make it fit. Maybe Vice could revisit their design for this application.

Good product that needs fine tuning
I installed the hidden winch mount and the solenoid relocation kit. The mount looks very beefy and installed relatively easily once I figured out that not all Ram trucks have equal parts - I had some extra mounts that I needed to adjust for. The fairlead for the Warn 12000 winch that you folks recommend had to be adjusted with a die grinder as it didn't fit into the slot in the grill - the holes had to be elongated and the fairlead moved up or the bumper wouldn't go on flush. The winch line holder that came with the kit I removed after trying it as it placed the cable end too tight over the fairlead and the clevis holder was cutting into the rope. But my biggest issue was the relocation box... my Ram had a different assembly in front of the fuse box which included a different type of mount for the fusebox (thicker) and a factory wiring harness that was in the way and couldn't be moved. I had to completely modify the bracket and mount the controller horizontally on top of the fuse box, meaning I'll have to remove the solenoid pack everytime I want to check fuses. This took a couple of hours of fabwork and adjustment. Overall a good product if the installer has the ability to adjust for things.

Winch install
Hi there, I won’t install the winch until the summer, I have no garage and here in St Albert , it’s still quite cold.
The item fit perfect. Exactly as described. The video on the product page made the install and setup so much easier. I’m considering putting one into my other vehicle now as well. Love this.
First and foremost, I am very happy with the kit. My only gripe is I still have the stock air dam with stock air dam mounts which the new bumper brackets interfere with. Second is the tow hooks. The new bumper brackets do not take into consideration the nut postioners, also the video does not address the reinstall of the tow hooks. Minor issues I was able to solve and again overall very happy with the kit.
Visual appearance and fit is pleasing for truck. I was hoping for this to be heavier duty for some minimal protection. For what it cost I’m not happy with my purchase. If I could have shipped back for return I would have.
Hi Nathan,
Glad the bumper fit well and you're happy with how it looks. The bumper is certianly up to the task in the strength department - we've had plenty of cutomers who have hit deer on the highway and its completely protected them and the vehicle. The bumper mounts are 1/4' thick and are fully boxed. The 10ga (0.135') shell is thicker than the industry standard of 11ga (0.120'). We design the bumpers so they can be daily driven and not bag out the suspension and steering components, which will happen if you go to a heavier steel. You're well protected!
This skid plate balances function and aesthetics. I’ve had this on my truck for a few weeks now, and I strongly believe it is a must have item for any off road enthusiast or everyday commuter that wants added protection and peace of mind.
The skid plate is built extremely well. This adds a much needed layer of protection under the front bumper to shield the lower portion of the engine and other nearby components. The steel construction will easily deflect any potential hazards while both on and off the road.
The sleek, low-profile styling really helps set this plate apart from some of the others out there, and its unique design is also one of the first options like this to market for the 5th generation Ram 1500s. It seamlessly integrates with the OEM bumper, and it doesn’t look awkward or out of place at all.
Vice Design prioritized user convenience from an installation standpoint. This skid plate fits OEM mounting points perfectly. The installation process is straightforward and can be completed with basic hand tools.
Regarding the quality and fitment, this skid plate is an excellent value. It’s an investment that adds protection, functionality, and an improved look to your ride all at the same time. I’ve been very happy with this product so far and I have no doubt that this plate will perform exactly like it was designed to.
Highly recommended for RAM 1500 owners looking to enhance their truck’s capability and appearance!
