Baz2236 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Hi I am after a Winch bumper for my 90. I originally wanted a rebel one as they sit high and look good but they cannot supply me with one and don't know when they will have any. So I am looking at the Terrafirma ones but can't find a picture of the back of it to see if the winch is mounted above the chassis rails like on the rebel one. Has anyone got one of these bumper that they could take a pic or let me know. Or if you know of a different make on bumper that allows the winch to sit high then please let me know. Thanks in advance Baz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a first Four one and its a great bit of kit. Mine is the close mount one so the winch sits back into the grille about ~3" and sits level with the top of the chassis.

Baz2236 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Thanks for the reply guys a couple of questions. Hi with you bumper the Aircon one does it stick out a far or is the winch close to the grill. With the cut down one can you still fit a full size intercooler in or it is too close.

landroversforever Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I'm in the process of ordering a full size intercooler... BUT it won't fit without moving the mounts. The Allisport one I'm getting fills the whole area of the grille, so I am moving the rad and IC back about 3-4" to fit it in. They do a double core IC to fit in the standard space for those with a winch into the grille. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierran.M.110 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 i got one from flat fog 4x4 from billing last year, looks similar to the first four and sits back in to the grill about the same as the first four challenge bumper, the difference look wise is it does not have the diagonal pieces on the top that go to the a-bar i paid 250 for it delivered as it was too big for me to bring home at the time. cant find it on their website now though. pic is bumper off the landy can get close ups if you need them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbs Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Ross, When I ordered my winch bumper-for a Milemarker, I ordered it for a L/R with aircon as that would give me the extra room for a full width I/C and I got mine from Alfred murray 4X4 who have had they're supplies bought out by First Four at Dunkeswell-Devon, Which are very nice people to deal with.

V8 Freak Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I have a First Four tubular shadow jobbie for aircon model. Excellent bit of kit and without amends to the grill the winch fits flush to the grill.... (As my diseasel has aircon etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landroversforever Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Until you find the steering box in the way Funny you should say that Mo... Put it this way when that thought struck me whilst removing the radiator I'm glad non of my neighbours children were about. They would have learnt some anglo saxon! However, I have all the measurements so time to see if it will still fit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz2236 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 Does anyone know how much longer the aircon bumper would stick out. I don't have Aircon but do have a full size intercooler and don't want the hassle of moving everything back. So looking at an Aircon bumper seem the only way but I don't want it hanging out the front too far. Baz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveM-Sport Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I have a non-aircon FirstFour tubular winch bumper and a 10000lb winch and it looks very tidy. I also fitted a full size intercooler recently and it just fits in without moving anything (there's about 2mm clearance So depends on the winch too I suppose as some might be abit bulkier than others but would be very easy to move you the bumper a tiny little bit or move the winch an inch or so to get the clearance if needed. I don't like the air-con ones to be honest as the winch sticks out very far. My winch isn't even noticeable to some people as they remark on it having it only looking at it closely... Although, there's quite alot of other gear on the 110 to distract them too of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveM-Sport Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 You can see how the non-aircon one looks here with the winch on mine on a couple of the pictures. I'll get a closer pic of the clearance to the intercooler tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Freak Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Baz... My winch is off the truck at the moment so can't measure for you just now... You're not too far away.. If you are down in the Royston area it wouldn't take long to whip your bumper off and offer up my winch bumper to see how it looks etc. Drop me a PM if you want to play.... Not sure if this helps....

DaveM-Sport Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Comparing that to mine below which is pretty much the best pic to show how far it sticks out, it looks like there isn't any difference in how far the actual fairlead sticks out but it's just that the tray underneath and rock guard is just a few inches further forwardNot that much anyway really as looks like most of the room for the air-con rad is got by just shifting the winch further forward in the bumper and shotening the tubes to allow the motor fit further forward. The fairlead is pretty much right up against the drum on yours whereas its a good 4 or 5 inches back from mine. I could only move the winch forward about an inch then before the motor hits the full length bumper bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
