    Opposite Lock Bull Bar D4

    I have found a few threads on the OL bullbar, but I would like to know if it is possible to fit a winch in the bar after fitting on the vehicle, or does it have to come off.

    regards

    No. It has to come off. Not a lot of room under there.
    Oops! Turns out I'm wrong. Thanks Tombie.

    Do you know if the genuine LR bar needs to be removed to fit a discreet mount?

    It has to be removed and then and the bar behind discarded. Then you’ll have to cut the webbing from the back of the plastic bar and put it back over the hidden mount. None of it is difficult but a good weekend. Fitting and wiring the winch takes time which is pretty much the point of the exercise I guess.
    I have done It against a few pros and cons offered up here. All valid but my choice.

    I’m pretty sure that the plastic bar has been removed. I know I had to cut the standard bar quite substantially. Pros and cons?
