Been thinking about it myself what I've found so far

Have an option for rear mounted winches but this may be a problem if your worried about rear overhang.
 Upto 12000lbs low profile winch but cost £350 +winch
External Mounting requires low profile winch if you require your rear door or tailgate to open

I have seen recently on E-Bay a rear winch mounting kit that fitted in the back body just behind the door (tailgate) you would need to have door open to use it and if you have family getting in out regularly they would have to climb over.  Was for 90 i think any. fitted any large winch

 The Real Tomb-Raider (the one in the film) had a smaller winch on the rear 3000lb I think and simply mounted on a plate bolted to the rear cross member using tow hitch bolting holes. The smaller winch I believe is because drove in you shouldn't need to move mud as well as a vehicle when you are winching yourself out.

if your going through the trouble of fitting a rear winch then do it properly and fit a decent winch that wont let you down

perfect winch to go into the rear is a huskey, they virtualy indestructable, and is the perfect rear winch do to having no break, the break is the gearbox itself
so you can lower out allday long

as for mounting wise, not sure how much space inbertween rear crossmember and tank but off top of head youll need around 10 inches to fit a huskey, unless you fit it in the rear load bed

lots of options, just deciding which to go for

yeah lots of options.

maybe one of the easier ones is to move the tank and fit a 90 tank
will continue to look about
but the ep superwinch has external brake so no plasma melting when lowering

thanks thou

markyb:
two options on the bay at present
