#1 by Doc 4x4 ( Guest ) , Sat Nov 12, 2016 8:42 pm

Hi there new to the l200 my first one it a 2002 truck
Got it few weeks ago so far I have done
Wheel and tyres
Spacers
Snorkel
Wind deflectors
Side exit exhaust
And today just finished 3 inch body lift after bit head scratching got it all done.
Now I have the problem looking for anybody that would have a winch bumper for sale or some photos and advice so I could make one. I'm a pipe fitter so bending pipe and welding can be done no problem just a bit lost as where start with brackets and so on .

too far to come and explain then lol, well there are 4 mounting points front of truck remove the metal re-enforcing from these keep the bolts because they go into captive nuts use these to mount your winch bumper I personally would also drill and fit 2 or even 4 more bolts through the chassis at 90 degrees to these 4.
