Winches & Hitches - Premium Towing and Recovery Gear

What This Collection Covers

This collection brings together the hardware needed to recover a stuck truck or Jeep and tow a trailer safely, from front-mount winches to receiver hitches to the straps and boards used to get unstuck on the trail.

Winches and Winch Mounts

Superwinch and other winch lines cover electric winches built for front bumper mounting on trucks and Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator platforms, with winch mount plates and bumper-integrated mounts engineered around common bumper openings.

Winch Accessories and Kits

Winch accessory kits add synthetic rope, snatch blocks, and control switches to an existing winch setup, while complete winch kits bundle a winch with mounting hardware for a one-part off-road recovery upgrade.

Hitch Receivers and Ball Mounts

Hitch receivers, ball mounts, and hitch accessories cover towing duty on trucks and Jeeps, with adjustable ball mounts and weight-distribution-ready receivers for trailers, campers, and off-road trailers.

Recovery Boards and Tow Straps

Recovery boards, tow straps, and tow hooks handle the actual recovery process once a truck or Jeep is stuck in mud, sand, or snow on the trail, working alongside a winch or another vehicle to pull free.

Jacks and Trail Tools

Off-road jacks and trail recovery tools round out the collection for owners who wheel their trucks and Jeeps regularly and want to carry recovery gear on every trip.

Hitch Covers and Finishing Hardware

Hitch covers finish out an exposed receiver opening when not towing, protecting the receiver tube from debris and giving the rear of the truck or Jeep a finished look.

Common Questions

What vehicles does this collection support?

Black Ops Auto Works carries winch and hitch hardware for trucks and the Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Gladiator platforms.

Do I need a specific mount for my winch?

Most winches require a mount plate or bumper-integrated mount matched to the specific front bumper on the truck or Jeep.

What hitch class do I need for towing?

Hitch class depends on the trailer or accessory weight, so match the receiver class and ball mount rating to the actual towing load.

Are recovery boards required for off-road recovery?

Recovery boards are not required but help a stuck truck or Jeep gain traction in mud, sand, or snow without needing a second vehicle or winch.

Can I use a synthetic rope on any winch?

Synthetic rope compatibility depends on the winch drum design, so check the specific winch before switching from steel cable.

Do hitch covers fit all receiver sizes?

Hitch covers are sized to specific receiver classes, so match the cover to the receiver opening size before ordering.

How do I confirm the correct winch or hitch part for my truck?

Match the exact year, make, model, and hitch class against the specific product listing before ordering.
