Finally got an OL bull bar fitted and did a quick look at fitting a winch. Seems easy except for bits of plastic/rubber around the transmission cooler and radiator.
I think one (higher up) is to ensure air flow is through grill rather than sucking up from road and other, thinner bit lower down is to prevent stones hitting the cooler fins. Looks like the winch will fit with the flexible rubber upper one in situ but it's the lower one which will have to go. They both seem redundant given the bar came with a pretty extensive bash plate which covers both. Any thoughts. Still looking for a place to mount the control box other than on the bar.
