they do all seem to be a bit dear, my ARB one was £430 and 5 months wait, it is the best thing since sliced bread though!. Rob Butler does some at www.rubbers-suzuki.co.uk dont know what theyre like or what they cost though.

Thanks Gary,  rob-Butler  wants 395  cant justify that amount to SWMBO, think i will buy a Supertrux winch  bumper for Vitara -and modify it for the Jimny ,  supertrux have a deal on at the moment - winch bumper and 48inch farm jack  for 165 pounds  , sounds good to me!
