Wish I had the time... and a shed!
Cheers

Hey bennie, We never put the first bar on here. But here is a pic of it.El_Freddo wrote:You can say that again! If I had half of his skills I'd be stoked... I guess it takes time and practise!
I can't remember what the first bar looked like - did you keep it or scrap it for the metal to use on other projects?
Cheers
Bennie

my current subie
L series, all the normal lift with big wheels (27" BFG ATR's), custom front and rear bars with rear tire swinger, roof racks and some other goodies. soon to have a snorkel and a nice ej22 dropped in it along with a gearbox which i havent decided on yet

A few pics to show progress of the front winch bar. The brumby has been put back together . Well all items that are to be painted. It is going out of shed to be painted. With the rain and heat, for us to paint it , we would have to wait till july.

You hit the nail on the head. Those are for L series indicators. Dont quiet understand the last bit. If you mean i am Steve's idea man , you are sort of right. I run idea's by the owner and then ask Steve if it is possible to do or not. Then we run it by Ross so as all of us agree . Then it gets done. We all put our 5 cents in , as it is a group thing we have going here.RSR 555 wrote:Rick..those cut outs for the indicators are at weird angles.. are you using L.Series units?

"Steve's an ideas man" comes from the classic aussie movie 'The Castle' sorry if it caused any confusion..

A few more steeps done on the winch bar.
The free wheel dial is on the inside of the bar, so had to make it easy to get to. A quick release was made to solve it.


Another bar has been put on to aid in the strength of the mounting of the bar.

Just a few more pics to show how it looks.
