What makes our hidden winch mounts the best? Check out all of the features and customer reviews below.
WHATS INCLUDED?
- All the heavy duty, precision fit brackets required to mount a medium body winch behind your TRX Bumper. This bracket kit is CNC cut and CNC formed before being welded by our skilled crew. The bracket kit is zinc primed and powdercoated in a satin black protective coating.
- Oil Cooler Relocation Bracket. This bracket kit moves your oil cooler from its plastic mount on the backside of the bumper, to a steel one mounted on the sturdy bulkhead of your TRX Frame.
- Hook Anchor Mount
- All required hardware which is graded for strength, and designed for a strait forward installation.
We also highly recommend adding the following options below:
CLUTCH RELOCATION KIT
An industry first option for our bracket kit is our revolutionaryClutch Relocation Kit! Accessing the clutch handleon select WARN or Smittybilt Winches has never been easier! The Clutch handle is positioned directly beside the fairlead on the bumper giving you rapid and safe access to engage or disengage the winch drum.
There are two options for this:
The WARN VR EVO fits Warn VR EVO PN 103255, 103254, 103253 and 103252
The Smittybilt X20 fits the GEN3 X20 Winches PN 98812 and 98810
CONTROL BOX RELOCATION KIT
Want the upmost reliability? 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. Bolt-on kits currently available for WARN VR EVO and SMITTYBILT X20 Gen2 Winches.
BUMPER GRILL INSERT
We sell a replacement insert designed for customers who do not wish to cut the Bumpers' Factory Plastic insert. This Part bolts into the bumper using existing slots and fasteners.
This replacement part is made from stainless steel and powder coated a satin textured black which matches the plastic part it replaces.
To add this to your order, select the bumper insert from the drop down menu above.

This hidden winch mount is designed to work with Synthetic Rope winches that come with Hawse fairleads (Roller systems not compatible without custom fabrication. If you’re set on using steel cable, Warn sells a compatible Steel Hawse Fairlead (PN WARN 73850)

The TRX Hidden Winch kit installs just like our proven 2019-2022 RAM Rebel Kit, which is highlighted in the following detailed instructional video below. In addition to this, additional steps include the relocation of a oil cooler using our easy to install bracket (included), and new skid plate mounts (also included in this kit)
The kit mostly works but severely lacks in the details. The printed instructions I got were printed on a printer that clearly was missing one color making the pictures completely unusable. I found the online PDF but the doc is full of typos, errors, and missing references.
The kit itself is good but not great. The bumper insert is not perfectly even and has extra holes that do not line up with anything. The skid plate mounting brackets are now much more difficult to operate and could have benefited from a captive or welded but.
Overall it works OK but I can’t say I would recommend it to anyone else until VICE decides to take it a bit more seriously.

TRX Hidden Winch Mount | 5th Gen | 2021-2024 RAM TRX
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!
