I am just starting a challenge truck build myself, After HOURS of wasted time on the phone to the DVLA and VOSA offices I was getting nowhere so decided to visit my local DVLA office, They are the ones that will tell you if your truck needs a SVA test. 10 minutes later I walked out a happy bunny after being told I wouldn't need a SVA test for the modifications I'd described. Basically I was told I could replace my 90 rear cross member with a winch mounting as long as I didn't shorten the chassis, This was the answer I was looking for because I still want to keep some useable storage space so my "tray" would be no shorter than the 90 rear tub was, In fact the "tray" will probably be a touch longer. (My aim is to reduce body damage without going too radical). They were also happy with me not keeping the original rear tub as they are more concerned with the vehicle description which I was told would still be a "Lighty 4X4 Utility". So returning to Nigel's original post.......My local DVLA office would be cool with "challenge front wings", They are not a chassis mod and it would still be described the same on your V5.
