Winch

Iain,

Cheers. Guy who I am buying from already has one fitted to his so we are fairly confident of getting it on (his is a V8 but can't be that diffrent). Think we might have the same transfer box. I'm a J reg too although lacking a turbo!!!

Is it a standard steerring guard you fitted or something you made up. I have a Southdown one on at the moment and the steering damper passes though it at one end. Not a lot of room for dropping it out of the way if I need to.

Do you know what the all up weight is? I'm guessing with winch, bumper, cable etc it must be around 70KG. Sound about right?

My steering guard is of unknown origin as i got it from Sodbury sortout, but I guess any steering guard will do so long as it is same width as chassis rails. I just drilled a couple of holes in each side of mine and through the chassis rails and bolted it on with long bolts. As for the weight, yes I reckon 70 - 80 kgs. I could just about pick the winch and bumper up, so yeah, about the weight of a body...ooer..have I said too much?
