My winch is two far back

[nowoolies]

I have a Warn winch XD 9000 fitted to my Origanal (spelt that way hahaha) Nissan ARB torro ca ca bar
and the winch is back way to far, the rollers are behind the leading edge of the bar work .
anyone know where i can get a spacer to bring the set up forward , if thats safe to do that is.
i was going to use it this arvo on a car down a ditch but when the cable touched the bar work and completly missed the rollers , i changed my mind , and towed him out in stead .
thanks

I don't think there is much you can do without major work on the bar.

thats a bugger i thought you might say that Tony
and what i was afraid of
but the sticker on the bar says use ONLY a warn xd9000 on this bar

Seriously though,
I have an ARB bar (origanal) And the XD9000 is the winch they recommend.
There are a couple of ARB bars one with posts and one with tube uprights.
I have had both and no dramas with either.
Can you show us some pics of yours so we can see what the problem is.
Cheers Gavin

Something is definately out of whack,
especially if it states the XD9000 is the recommended winch.

I await the pics to enlighten the situation.

That's how they all are Paul, the way I stopped mine rubbing on the bar was to space the fairlead out toward the front of the bar futher with longer bolts
and flat bar spacers.

that does not look like an ARB bar looks more like a TJM or something,,,,,, you wont be able to move the winch itself forward as in the photos it looks hard up agianst the inside of the bar already,,,,, how ever i did notice a fitting bolts to the fairlead ass (rollers) you may be able to put a spacer behind the fairlead ass and that way move it forward so that it clears the bar. just bear in mind the fairleads and the hook on the cable must not protrude further the bar work. hope this helps

it was a absolute b!tch to fit took Oppisite Lock most of the day
and i cant find a spacer plate to fit the fairlead to move it forward , not sure i like the idea of washers behind the fairlead

[Sir Roofy]

make the plates your self out of a bit of flat,looking at your pics thats your only option
mesaure up and check it twice and the jobs done
good luck

[kingy]

have a bo peep at the pic this is direct from the nissan website....

thanks kingy
i just got a idea put a skid plate from under the bottom roller to over the leading edge of the bar work
i have used the winch twice and its getting cable cuts in the front of the bar
thanks mate

[kingy]

Hey that would work....make 2 and I will buy one of ya :D

As mentioned have got a Warn XD9000 to install sooner or later.

Cheers
