arb winch bar body gap

[muddymech]

Hi all
Quick question what gap do you set when fitting an arb winch bar. The book sats min 5 mm, at the moment I have 20mm, as the brackets need drilling want to get it right before I drill.
Thanks ian

Give as much as you can,20mm sounds fine

Yep I got as much as I could by using the 3 shims and also lifted the bar as high as it would go. It turned out well although I had to get slightly longer bolts for the pinning bolts as the supplied ones just aren't long enough when using the 3 shims.
