I'm trying to route the IC plumbing the same way, but the standard county bottle is too fat and in the way.

I doubt that D2 w/wiper bottles are the same but it is an Air-con equipped County bottle. Non-air County's had the fat bottle close to the heater while those with factory air sat further on following the curve of the left inner guard just behind the headlight.Quote:

To give you an idea, from the back of the plastic grill (the horizontal louvers which should be the same as yours) it's 60mm to the front of the cross braces and 160mm to the face of the engine radiator.
Hope this helps,

I have removed the standard A/C condenser, replacing it with an intercooler. I also have a PTO winch fitted to an ARB winch bar. It all fits, although access is limited, unless you have time. Nothing else in that area is modified, and it could still be returned to standard if desired.
Thanks, that looks quite good. Do you have a winged or wingless sump?Quote:

It does though, and rotates smoothly, with very little noise. These winches are very powerful, even a single line pull is effortless and they work every time!.

Did it require any modification?

I used the top fairhead position, but the cable angles slightly up to the fairhead, and it is not perfect, but it works. It would be best to fit an ADF bullbar. Are you getting the shafting already assembled for a 110?. The rarest part is the PTO unit itself, but they do turn up every once in a while!. They are a great setup, really basic, nothing to go wrong, on the same ethos as the Isuzu 110:D.
