Defender winch bumper

[Tinbasherdan]

A long shot, but I know we have a few landy weirdos in here! I’m after a defender ARB winch bumper, the type with the big nudge bar on it. Thought about one on eBay for too long last week and missed it like the lightforce spotlights and the macho 5 rims, it’s something I used to see advertised in the landy mags but could never afford. I’ve got two out of the three, just the bumper to go now!!

Hi Dan, my son had one, don’t know if he still has, but I’ve sent him a message to ask

@Tinbasherdan, sorry, he’s just come back to me, sold it awhile back

No worries, cheers!

Build one???

 

[tom2207]

Start welding , be nice in alloy , or stainless .

That’s a final resort, I’ve plenty other things to be doing on it without building bumpers

I have to get around to building a new bumper for my Disco2, which will include a socket for my quick release 13500lbs winch design.

Sure thing! For your Disco2 bumper, go for a sturdy steel build. Make a snug socket for your 13500lbs winch, ensuring a solid fit. Reinforce key points for durability. Prioritize approach angles for off-road fun. Add recovery points and some mean-looking LED lights. Test it out—may your winch pull you out like a champ!

AI writing a post? That’s a paddlin’

That’s a paddlin'

( I must admit I had to work out what you meant ( That's a paddlin' ) )

Bumpity bump- still looking for one. Had no luck besides scam after scam on the facebook groups , one lad who wants new money for a bumper needing repairs and one lad who changes his mind every 30 seconds as to whether he’s selling one or not. @8ob I bet you’ve got one down the back of the sofa!

Before you get too excited enquire with your insurer if it makes any difference to your policy / premium.

I suspect the 5.9L Cummins, 37” tyres and various other mods might be the bits that excite the insurers
