Mounting D-Ring Shackles, grille guard? bumper?
Good afternoon NWOLs! I wanted to get some guidance and ideas on mounting bolt on d-ring shackles to either my custom grille guard or stock front bumper.
I started to order these 1" w/ back plate.

But I did not have enough confidence about where to mount them. The plates are too big for the front face of the grille guard and I'm not sure if mounting to the bumper is wise.
The grille guard is 1/2" plate mounted to the frame where the tow hooks were. The bumper is stock.
I'm planning on a winch.
Thoughts?
Thank you for any guidance!

That's what I'm thinking. When it comes to rigging points, more is better! More surface contact, more weld, more better
