I've had it for 2 months now and added about 8000k to the clock already.

Apart from towing my camper for a bit over the holidays up the east coast and around SA I've managed to get out on plenty of tracks.

I'm lucky enough to be in Vic and surrounded by some very good ranges. Mt Cole, Grampians and the Pyrenees are all under half hr away.

As it already has a B Bar and winch my only mods planned are 285's and a small lift.

At the moment I'm looking at a light roof rack suitable for my kayak and small stuff.

After doing lots of looking at recovery points I measured everything up and did a template.

A few adjustments to my drawing and I ended up with this.

27915

All done and painted.
I used 8mm bis80 plate and when inbolting the bull bar it sprung out a perfect amount for it to slip behind.

5 bolts will hold it in place

Hopefully it's not hanging down too far.

If it proves to be a problem ill make a new one with the tow point at the front of the bracket
