I've got a few pictures in my galley of mine being fitted :D

As well as the towbar mounting points, it also mounts via lugs on the side near to the rear. They line up with existing chassis mounts.

I didn't use the forward-most mounts as, as been said above, you have to drill through the chassis - in a very awkward place! I was told that they aren't really necessary, but you need to make your own mind up :wink:

All I can say is it's been over some pretty rough terrain and hasn't budged an inch :D

Range Rover Blues:
All those washers go between the rear mounting point and the chassis, to allow enough space for the Southdown HD bumper which also mounts around the chassis at this point.  Once you have it bolted up at the rear then jack it up untill the guard rests on the chasssi crossmember ahead of the tank, then drill the 2 holes and fit M12 bolts, not the original m10 that were there.

Damonski:
All done (apart from the electrics)

New photos in the gallery too :)

Thanks to all for those final fitting notes :)

Sorry.... did someone mention "Southdown" and "fitting instructions" in the same sentence  :shock:  :evil:
One day I may just receive the instructions for fitting their snorkel  :(bigangry):
