It states for 2500/3500s, and I know they use a different tow hook, you probably should call or email to confirm they will work IF you have a 1500.
I don't think $135 is such a good price though, hell it's not even painted.
I'm going to fab up one for my Jeep for when the winch is off with just a 1" square steel tube and a couple 1/2" ones. Probably take me all of an hour to cut, weld and paint and I'll have all of $20-25 in parts...

Didn't know if you had a 2500 or not since you don't have a sig... It'll work, I just think it's a little pricey for what it is, for my money anyway...
The one I'm going to make will be cake, since the winch mounts to a front receiver hitch, I'm just gonna take a spare flat (no drop or rise) receiver and build a light bar off of it and use a couple quick connects for power and ground, thisaway I can swap between winch (which I also mounted a set of 130 watt lights to it's fairlead) and light bar in about a minute...
