Hello,

A quick search on the Web will show you a whole heap of places. I'm not sure where you're based but Lincoln is littered with places. From my limited dealings with them so far I can certainly recommend Famous Four in Louth. Take a look at their website at http://www.famousfour.co.uk/ and just follow the link to your particular vehicle. If nothing else it will give you an idea of prices.

I'm taking mine to them for an inspection and also to have some rock sliders and recovery points fitted. I might invest in some under body protection for the front as well.

Hope that helps.
 
Looks like the Bates set-up from the U.S.? Bit out of my price range at mo` but does look well made. (As much as you can tell from piccies!).
Don`t know about carrying spare can of LPG tho!
I keep toying with idea of ski bolted to chassis under engine bay to extend just beyond original bumper. Would decrease approach angle a little, but if demountable, could be removed for on road use. Fixed steel bumpers would defeat use of crash cans wouldn`t they, and SRS would be less effective, I think. Any comments?
 
Bates' setup is really good but not for Europe and i find that kills the classy look of the rangie.

I'm looking at making discrete accessories that will look ok from MOT or safety point of view.
 
That sounds like an agreement ! Can`t believe it on this site! That`s why I was imagining an easily detachable system that retains (under protection) the original bumper. My idea would though involve a lot of heavy metal work to provide a rigid & strong link from in front of the bumper to a point behind the crash cans. Maybe too much to ask? Maybe have to settle for removing standard bumper for offroad & replace for MOT? It`s extra work but simplifies design. And for us it`s only once in 2 years.
 
Always good to know Customers requirements. ;)
Take a look at my steering guard.
I've someone in the UK who's testing a beta version for RHD cars.
