    Bull bar winch mounting problem

    Guys
    I have a 4.5 GU with a Nissan bullbar, I can't see where the winch mounts on to. Is there a mounting plate I need to buy?

    You may find the winch cradle will bolt to the 2 captive nuts UNDER each side of chassis
    What style bar??? alloy or steel

    Steel I think. It looks similar to the one belonging to the member you guys are helping out.

    2 Bolt holes you can see and the other 2 you cant. Its generally pretty obvious if it is a winch bar.

    I think it's a winch bar, it has the top plate cover for the solenoid and the area to bolt on the cable rollers.
