    Good question. They are few and far between. I find the biggest issue is getting the bloke behind the counter to put some effort in if they dont have what you ask for.

    FINALLY got the winch back from welding! They did a good job and was cheap in the end but would have liked it sooner anyway...
    So I can get around to cleaning it up and ready for painting next week now.

    lots of clearance for the all thread and bolts, nice!

    How close was your winch to the grille on your millweld pre brace kit plates?

    Still enough room with out chopping?

    sorry to create paranoia...lol
    Should be fine mate it's just the top brace on mine was only 8mm from my ic which sits 30mm past the grille and as you saw my grille has been cut to suit.

    Can't remember exact measurements but your millweld had a fair bit extra clearance then ARB so fingers crossed!

    Yeah look I've really only added another 10-15mm to the overall depth of the winch. Worst case is we will just do a snippy snip but hopefully we won't need to =]

    Hey winnie. Whats the model of your winch? I bumped into a bloke today, we were just gas bagging about 4wds and the conversion got onto winches and he said he's got a 8274? Hi mount. he said he would sell me cheap as it needs a rebuild. We haven't talked price or i havent even seen it. I know zero about them. Not really the best time to be spending more money too. My bar cant even take a hi mount, i got his number though...

    Cheers.
