D4 winch options

[Bluepippa]

I'm sure this has probably been done to death, but it never hurts to ask again
I'm after a winch for my D4, but don't have a bullbar and didn't realy want one...
So to fit a $400 winch I need to spend $3000 on a bulllbar

Is there any other options, I'm sure I saw a post for a concealed winch, if so does anyone know who would do this or would it have to be DIY..

Thanks and if anyone here is going to the weekend away in a couple of weeks, you will recognise me as I will be crawling all over any car with a winch to see how it's been fitted

Daryl,
Contact Greg Pearson from Cremorne Prestige Service. I think he has a concealed winch on the front of his D4.


Cheers,

Mine has a concealed winch. I'll most likely be getting rid of all the winch mount hardware in favour of a bullbar in the future. I'm happy to attempt to get some pics for you (I'm a bit physically limited right now because of a neck brace). I should definately be able to get some better pics towards the end of the month however

Keen to see pics, there is some nice ones Land Rover run on their adventure cars with no bull bar.

Check in the vendors area.
Barbagallos Perth had a genuine winch at a pretty substantial discount.

The winch kit weighs as much as a bullbar

LR do a semi concealed winch for the Discovery 4, on the website, go to build a Discovery and click on the accessories, there is a pic of it fitted.

No idea of the price, but no doubt it wouldn't be all that cheap.
