Winch Mounting Plate Mitsubishi Pajero II Raptor 4x4
A steel Raptor 4x4 mounting plate that lets you fit a winch to a Mitsubishi Pajero II without swapping the factory bumper for a steel one. The plate sits recessed inside the bumper, leaving only the fairlead visible. Fitting requires modifying the lower grille surround.
Raptor 4x4 Winch Mounting Plate — Mitsubishi Pajero II
Fitting a winch to a Pajero usually forces one decision up front: a steel bumper in place of the factory one. Not everyone wants to go that way — it changes how the car looks, adds serious weight ahead of the axle and can cost several times more than the winch itself. This plate removes that trade-off.
Raptor 4x4 designed it to sit recessed inside the Pajero's original bumper. Only the fairlead stays visible on the outside — roller or hawse, depending on what you run. The car keeps its standard front end while you gain a purpose-built winch mounting point.

Key benefits
- Keeps the factory bumper — no need to buy and paint a steel replacement just to carry a winch.
- Steel construction — a material that carries winching loads rather than merely holding the unit in place.
- Recessed installation — the plate tucks into the bumper, leaving only the fairlead on show, so the vehicle's profile is unchanged.
- Pajero II specific — shape and mounting points suit this platform, with no brackets to fabricate.
Technical data
- Manufacturer code: 21441 (Raptor 4x4, Saglietti S.r.l.)
- Application: Mitsubishi Pajero V20 (second generation)
- Material: steel
- Weight: 12 kg
- Installation: recessed within the original front bumper
Who it is for: Pajero II owners who want recovery capability for expeditions, forestry work or the trail, but care about keeping the vehicle's original appearance. It is also the sensible route when the budget should go on a proper winch rather than on a bumper.
Fitting notes
Installation requires modifying the lower grille surround to create the opening for the rope and fairlead. That change is permanent on the trimmed part, so it is worth planning deliberately. The winch and fairlead are not included and are selected separately. If you would rather not tackle it yourself, our workshop builds off-road and overland vehicles daily and can specify the winch and carry out the whole installation.
Why it is worth it
- It makes winch mounting possible without giving up the original bumper.
- A steel, model-specific part instead of a universal plate trimmed to fit on site.
- Discreet installation — only the fairlead shows from outside.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to fit a steel bumper?
No — that is the whole point of this plate. It allows a winch to be mounted inside the original Pajero II bumper.
Does installation require bodywork changes?
Yes. The lower grille surround has to be modified to route the rope and seat the fairlead.
Is a winch included?
No. This is a mounting component; the winch and fairlead are selected separately.
Which Pajero does the plate fit?
The second-generation Mitsubishi Pajero (V20). The manufacturer lists it as specific to this model.
What is visible once it is installed?
The plate itself sits inside the bumper — only the fairlead, roller or hawse, remains visible from outside.
