Winch mount

All of that needs to be done on the Terrafirma/Britpart one as well. Notching the tray for the drier tube, cutting off the upper metal piece, cutting all of the plastic where the tray is on the inside of the bumper.

The cutting of the plastic is the least fun part.

I figured as much. I'll be buying a dremel tool then. Since I'm dumb enough to try and do the install myself.

Good call to do it yourself. You will learn a bunch and save a ton of money. Plan on it taking 2 days.

You can buy Devon now. Its 950+ British pounds + shipping

Considering the exchange rate of $1.63 per British Pound, you are talking $1600 plus shipping, which will be considerable. At that cost, I would much rather just drop the $2000 for an ARB bumper (includes a winch mount).

Doesn't ARB bumper reduce your approach angle?

Surfrider77 · Sep 21, 2014

Quite the opposite! Look at the angle and height of that bumper.

ARB bumper was a non starter for me. I want to look as OEM as possible at least for now

C'mon now, you are getting into an aesthetic discussion now... :tongue:

A friend of mine in my Land Rover club had a hidden winch mounted and it was quite a job!
