Fitted my Uncle Ray discreet winch mount :D
Fitted my Uncle Ray's discreet winch mount and my Goodwinch TDS 9.5i fitted with a Bow 2 motor (quick) that I had on my old D1 off roader.
Only fitting issues were a slight die grind on the mounting holes for the winch, rest was extremely straight forward.
I had to make a new electrical control box, as the standard one wouldn't fit under the bumper bar, and I thought it wasn't wise to cut into it, also had to remove the air free spool too, will drill a hole through the bumper bar to fit a long bolt to so it can be used if needs be, but the winch motor is quick enough to not really need it.
Also changed my front bumper as mine had an argument with a lamp post, and damaged the front air suspension block valve (also changed). So now my front parking sensors work, Ive new front fogs with LED bulbs.
Just need to set up the ride height again, as its not 100%, but I have the capability with the wifi OBD dongle I have, so getting there
