Not sure if you have seen photos from my other thread. Other user who owns 2020 power wagon took photos and post them there of the two brackets he have.

If


it fits the 19 it’ll fit your 20.
Are you sure? Cause every website I go to it only says 2019. I also assume they will fit 2020 it just makes me wonder cause it's not listed.

I know the frame hasn’t changed in that area at least

I'm not very optimistic about it. If mopar have not updated their system with correct part my dealer probably going to tell me I need two same brackets and they should work.

Okay they called me back and told me right side part number is 68349985AA and left side is 68349988AA . When I look for them it looks like they have been replaced with AB. So heavyg603 it looks like you got it right. I will order it and let you know if it works.

Okay so I will order now whatever I need. I type in screw part number and it gave me this description (Bracket To Cross Car Casting) this is part #27 on the diagram. Do you think it's the screw that attaches left/right bracket to frame?

Unfortunately that drawing sucks. Might even be the cross piece.

I would like to make a detailed tutorial on what to buy and how to install the winch. Of course if everything will work. So I want to have all parts marked and described.

I’m sure people would find that useful for years. I was headed in that direction but decided the bumper was a better fit for me.

Oh I can understand that. I bought the tradesman with the intention of swapping it out for a better one but almost kept it given the challenge finding what I wanted.

I’m watching this with great interest. I have no desire to change out my bumper, but I’d love to get a winch in there. Good luck!

I received the main bracket today (where the winch attach) and I don't know why the main bracket have 2 holes to attach to side bracket. But the side bracket only have one. Per photos above from another member it looks like I suppose to use only one bolt so I'm going to use one. I could drill and tap new hole but if from factory they used one it should work fine
