    Westy's winch Bar. finally

    So over the last few weeks I've been building my winch bar to house the 11xp..

    So I started with a plan.
    I've loved this bar for a while now. Been an inspiration of sorts.

    Anyway enough chubbys.

    Let the build begin.
    I've made the side plates 12mm thick and incorporated some points on the front.
    I also wanted a good angle so bought the winch up above the chassis rails.
    Main plate is 4mm with 40x 4 angle to mount the winch on..
    50mm side tubes and 40mm brace. 3mm check plate to fill the gaps.
    Anyway. Enough chit chat.

    Looks pretty good, Kallen. Now go out and use it
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
