Thread: Mantec Winch Bumper

The Mantec Winch Bumper is the same as the winch bumper supplied by Land Rover except it does not have the additional rubber attachments on the outer. As far as I am aware, it is made for LR by Mantec, as is the OEM raised air-intake. I have the OEM version and it is very strong with two very good recovery points. I have not seen any testing but I am sure it would be much stronger than the original bumper. You need to be mindful that the bumper does not project as far forward as many winch bumpers and consequently may not house some winches. I have a Warn 9.5ti. I am sure Mantec would advise. I have found them very helpful via email.

Cheers

Thanks Karl,

I think ill have to get one.
Ill be using a ridge rider 12000lb winch with it untill I can afford to get myself a nice Warn Winch (already have the ridge rider from last car)

from what I know its the same mounting size and dimensions as and xd9000 Warn which im led to believe the 9.5ti is based on(as are most winches on the market!)?

Does anybody in Brisbane have one of these bars already fitted??.....I would love to eye ball it

Cheers
