    Winch mounting

    I've just got my new TJM Winch. I'm trying to mount it to a ARB Winch bar. Does any one have any ideas on mounting them.
    Cheers Steve

    Yes...

    Read the ARB instructions for mounting the winch...

    Remove the rollers from the ends...
    Mark a NEW HOLE inline with the lower hole on the bar...

    Redrill hole!

    This is in the ARB winch bar instructions AND has measurements!

    I dont have any ARB instructions. Is 1 hole in the end enough to strenghten it?

    I'm not sure that you have grasped what Mike was explaining.

    If I'm wrong please correct me. But what I think was suggested was to move the roller fairlead to the slot position by drilling new bolt holes in the fairlead bracket.

    I understand what he was saying. but originaly the hole was in the middle, if its moved lower will weaken it?
