Rock sliders are on the way through hard range already... I just want to help out a bit and get some numbers for a batch run. The pricing the boys had worked out already was good and the design I have seen is solid and pretty.

The discreet winch mount will be pretty much the same behind the bumper 2 inch receiver style as the Junosi home made version on here a while ago. Will post some pic's when I get a chance. This will be made to "tradesman" quality and standard but offered for private off road use only.

Main reason being I don't think it will be engineered or tested to the same degree as the big winch bar manufacturers do.

The more in the cheaper this should be. Targeting well under the $200 mark.

Under $200 will probably get me.

I've got a tow bar ready to cut up but can't weld for ****, so something pre done and guranteed to fit would be great!

Sounds like my status to date on it too.

I even went out and bought welding gear and enquired about TAFE courses! Now realize I want pro welding straight up. Will probably end up practicing welding on my trailer frame work, not something thats gotta bear up to 3 ton of car and contents let alone fighting forces of mud or gravity.

Like the bushes, it is not a business venture so cost to me will be sell. And want it to be as lean a cost as possible, so probably not even gonna paint them. I figure most people can sort that bit depending on their needs and budget.

Definitely interested in a 'discreet' winch mount at that price... .
Do the rock sliders also double as "running boards"... then again, guess I could always lower the suspension to Access

Hmm. Winch mount. I have a winch sitting under the workbench........

Maybe even rock sliders but I'm not sure what I'd use them for.

Dave, keep going, you are doing a grand job here.

I am def interested in a discreet front winch mount and a rock slider. I already have a winch on a winch tray that plugs into my rear towbar hitch, a front access point would make me INVINCIBLE!

We need pics!

Pretty sure they stick out enough to get a toe or two on, but are higher and closer to the sills than factory running boards/side steps. Will get example photo's up soon.

I think I am starting to understand why we don't see too many group buys happening through this forum!

In saying that, any one interested in P38 discreet winch mounts and rock sliders? The bushes process has at least forced me to get a final result on an outstanding job!

Im def interested in both...
