Bullbar and Winch Question

[DiscoWeb]

I am looking at getting a bar on my D3 however one of the limitations I have is space in the garage particularly length which is already tight with the standard plastic bumper.

So can anyone give me an idea if a bar might extend further than the standard set up.

I was also thinking of a winch and been doing a bit of reading up on a Tigerz 11 however read a comment that they are a long winch body wise so wondering if anyone has fitted one, which bar make has it been installed in?

Thanks for any assistance.

I recently put a Tigerz11 12000lb winch in a Opposite Lock winch bar. Fits OK width wise. I haven't got measurements for the extra length of the winch bar compared to the standard bumper though.

Hi George,

I have a D4 and I have an ARB winch bar which from grille to rubber stops is 280mm.

Definitely further out. This can even be seen from the pics of the bullbars on the D3/D4. I have an OL bar going on shortly ( i hope ) and will be able to give comparison measurements if you can wait that long. At a guess I would say the bullbar will add 200-250mm to the length of the vehicle.

My OL bar adds another 250mm from bottom of grill.

Thanks Gup and other replies, I will do a comparison against my standard bumper and post back tonight or tomorrow.

It will be heaps longer... Like 150+ mm i would imagine.

I have a D4 with an OL bar and winch. It is definitely more prominent but not by as much as l thought. From memory when l did the comparison it was approximately 120 mm longer.
