winch bumper winch mount
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 2:02 pm
got me an ebay winning bid on a land rover winch bumper, ok so far, i know i will have to make new mounts to fit it to my vitara and have already part way there with a few ideas, but the bumper has a rounded tray for the bottom to take the winch drum, the only flat bit is at either end but there are no holes in the base at either end for a winch, (it looks like a winch was never fitted), and the tray is quite long so not simply a case of drilling new holes for my soon to be purchased winch, so my question is will i now need one of those universal winch mounts?
like this:-

OR
should i just buy some 6mm and weld that to the bumper and then drill my own holes?
although drilling 6mm plate may tax my drilling equipment somewhat.
the other odd thing is that it also has 2 fairlead slots as well,
any help would be welcome
thanks
