Since there is almost no information out there for these I wanted to post this. The rugged ridge spacers shown here http://www.amazon.com/Rugged-Ridge-11540-15-Mounting-Spacer/dp/B00390RLLY product number 11540.15 are 3/4" thick and have 4.5" center to center spacing between the holes. They are a quality product and are perfect if you are putting a big winch like the Badlands 12k into an ARB.

Thanks for this info, I am getting ready to put my repowdercoated ARB back on and am adding this winch from HF.
was going to make some aluminum spacers from bar stock, but got on here searching to find out spacer thickness needed and found your post, and bam, half the price of an 8ft stick of bar stock from grainger

you may want to double-check the provided bolt threads vs your winch's before you start putting things together.
 
This is good advice, I can't remember now if the ones rugged ridge provided are the same pitch or not.

the provided bolts are correct, worked perfect in mounting up my HF 12K winch, unfortunately as my profile pic shows, ARB still not back on my truck......a little issue with the old flange keeping me from mounting up the led lights in place of the old turn signals, gonna have to dremel off some of the old tabs to make the washers fit on the backside of the bumper

Think this would be the appropriate solution for mounting the mile marker as well?
