I went to fit a winch bar today but found the front of the passenger side chassis rail badly corroded:o
I will have to get an engineering mob to cut out the damaged bit and weld in some new metal.
I did however offer it up to get an idea of fit and function and to see if I could just move the fitting holes back along the chassis rail.
With the top holes lined up and the underside sideways bolt holes all lined up , it seems to sit way too far forward of the front of the guards.
The winch will be a low mount type so maybe that's why it sits so far forward.
Does anyone have a dimension from centre of top chassis mounting holes to back of winch bar plate where the winch would bolt on.
Thanks Pete
