I fitted one on mine. it was build for protection for large kangaroo in Australia. the standard coils can support it. but, once you put in a winch it will droop i installed heavy duty coils from old man emu w nitrochargers. i got about an inch lift at the front. HTH

Thanks but was just looking around, i usually take a few months to think things over before buying them. if that excited feeling you have inside dies down within a month or two then its not worth buying

I jumped and bought the led headlights within a week though as they were the only pair in stock here locally

Now this has been on my list for over 6 months might actually get it now http://www.landrovertuning.com.au/shop/def...-seam.html 2012 Fuji White 110

Careful the legality crew will soon be along to inform you how wrong and illegal it is to have on in the UK

To help out, I've clarified this with someone who knows and their opinion is that currently as long as the insurance accepts the risk, then even in the event of a fatal, the fitting of such, whilst it might be recorded as a contributory factor, will not bring legal proceedings against the owner/driver on it's own. So if some dosy 'appath pulls out in front of you and your ARB destroys their eurobox and the individual sat within, the ensuing investigation will not point at your new bumper

There are MOT regulation changes coming into effect including the safety of pedestrians but he doesn't feel they would prevent someone installing such a bumper - as long as it's not dangerous (e.g. winch hook is retained safely).

So the message is:- tell your insurance. If you don't - and the worse happens - expect to be residing at Her Majesty's Pleasure for some time

*none of this is intended as legal advice. I do not have any professional indemnity insurance to cover you getting sued because you listened to me
