I saw this setup

and it doesnt spoil the look of the D40.

If you are going to get a winch, don't waste your time and money on cheap winches, get a warn or superwinch, and atleast an 8000lb pull.
I wish we could get that in the U.S. :roll:Noggin said:I saw this setup

It would also look miles better with plasma rope and nice neat ally fairlead.

It's going to stop a lot of cooling capacity on that bottom cooler though!

The fact it's not manufactured would be a worry for me, would love to get a discreet winch in the front but there doesn't seem to be anything available on the general market let alone the cost if there was!!!
Stick to the winch for a defender instead!

I've found that the ally fairlead and plasma rope don't mix to well :shock:landmannnn said:I am sure they would export it to the states.mcm4090 said:I wish we could get that in the U.S. :roll:Noggin said:I saw this setup

on the base D22 there is nothing except the power steering cooler infront of the rad so I mooved that put a landy winch tray across the dumb irons at the front and stuck in a champion winch. the only cosmetic difference is the roller fairlead at the front. I only had to cut a 12" by 3" strip out of the bumper to fit it and the whole process took me 1.5 hours. I can reccomend champion as a cheap winch as 18 months on of regular use in and out of water etc it still pulls strongly, though it is slower than a warn

Not just you mate, I've got to admit I only just got it now I've seen the photos, I thought you meant demountable winches. Oops
