fittting a front toeball

Post by Ginger_boy » Sun Apr 05, 2009 7:42 am

Hi

I've got my hands on a cheap 12v winch that hooks over a ball hitch fine for pulling backwards, but what if i wanted to pull forwards.

Any Ideas on how to fit a front toebar without ruining the stock bumper and loosing ground clearance
It' a 4x4 why not drive it across a field

If i was you i would simply get a recovery bar or similar that you can just put a strap through.


The standard bumper wouldnt hold the weight of half your zuk never mind all of it :roll:

A nice little thing i have seen is a cut down S3 bumper fitted to a sj

you could then weld a ball hitch to the bumer
