Finally finished the bumper, winch and wiring, and it all works :rockin:

got a nice big toggle on the dashboard for my use internally, and a wireless remote for all other features
also had a plan with my MK1 golf indicators, partitioned off a small bit and fitted a 26 SMD led into the side, looks great, nice a bright, and winkers look good too

tried an action shot but the iphone is pretty useless (at lots of things, cant wait to get shot)

itching to use it now, see what i can do

Laters

Bit of an update, had a bit of an offroad adventure, weekend, 2 nights camping in torential rain, 2 offroad sites, and all i got was 2 pictures

first is of me using my winch for the first time, and it performed brilliantly, even rescued 4 LR 110's over the weekend.

Image

and this was from site 2, just before i called it a day and went home

Image

had a cut out problem on the way home, think there is some crap in the fuel, time to change the filters

until next time

WOW

I can't believe there has been no update since april last year, very naughty of me.

well, as it happens, other than a change of rear lights (destroyed one on a seemingly easy puch in a club competition last year) nothing has changed, used it a lot, fitted a new stereo, drove it a bit more, now however a few things need to happen, will get some pics of what tomorrow but in the mean time, here is a poser shot, and a picture of my new rims (ignore the tyres)

actually as it goes, how can i tell the width of the rims without measuring them, was told they were 10" and if that is the case, may be a bit to wide for the planned 235/75's going on

anyway, can you say Bling :brows:

Image

and the poser shot, snow, green lane and an SJ what more could you ask for (a working heater would have been nice as it goes)

Image

ciao for now

Any plans or close up pics of that rather tidy bumper?

go back a page mate, all there from scratch

no real plans, just loose measurements to get everything cut and a good friend who is a great welder and fabricator
