Winch mounting

<< < (2/2)

Mutz:
Guy in Lincs. Is advertising Landie winch bumpers on ebay (Guardian)
he is making them, i sent him an email and he says he can make me a one-off to fit for about £200, bumper and mount so will get in touch with him as i have to travel to lincs. soon.

but i still like the idea of keeping the front as stadard as possible, using a similar idea to yours, did you use it for recovery and did the brackets hold ok or did you reweld the existing brackets.

J B:
do you refer to the brackets that bolt the standard bumper to the chassis ?

if so they wernt used on my setup, the bumper was 1 piece that bolted to the outside of the chassis leg, the winch tray bolted to the inside face of the chassis leg, and  4x 12mm bolts held the lot together

yes i used it for recovery but only ever used a doubled up winch line, because the winch was a 6000lb rated unit

Mutz:
yes they are the ones i was talking about and, before you ask, no i dont intend to use the adjustable fixings either :)
i just wanted to confirm where you attached yours.
thanks for all the help jon boy, its been very helpfull.
cheers mate. Graham

J B:
pleasure, good luck with it :lol:
