    Calling on GU owners (2005+) with ARB winch bullbars

    I am calling on any GU owners 2005 onwards with an ARB winch bullbar.
    I need to get measured the distance between the winch mount bolt hole on the bar and the bar mounting bracket on the bullbar on the left side. The winch is I think 223mm for bolt centre to end on motor.

    If I get a someone, I'll PM my mobile or you can PM your mobile and I'll give you a call or just get the measurement if you understand my engrish above.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I have only recently had the ARB bar fitted by the panel beater after the crash. I can confirm that the mount system on the ARB bar is COMPLETELY Different to the OE bar from Nissan that it replaced. A heap more room in there mic. I fitted this winch to the Nissan bar and it was snug in there but there is heaps of room around this one.

    It's not looking promising.
    I just look at Runva website and the drum size is 223mm.
    The bolt hole centre to end of motor is 206mm.
    I'm really hoping your measurement was rough.

    If you look at that last pic i posted. That is looking dead straight ahead through the bar and along the chassis. The Winch is actually Above the rail and the Airbag crush mount is like a little slipper on the end of the chassis rail. Then you see the adjusting screw (big silver washer you can see it well from the top pic looking down on it) Given what i have just seen i think you will be right mate.

    I really really hope so.
    I just spoke to Steve (Steve4wdin) as he has a 2011 GU like mine and has a ARB deluxe winch bar and he'll get me measurements and maybe photos also a bit later on.
