Hi guys, had these taken off of my Dad's D3 and I brought one for myself seeing as I was hoping to get a D3 but alas it never happened (yet)

Anyway, these were hard as hell to get in the first place as they are only available in the genuine land rover winch pack with a Warn 9.5xp winch for something like £2700 a piece......

....so anyway, looking at £450 a mount, I will stick up some pics later if anyone is interested....this is much less than we paid!

I'm in St Neots or Peterborough, wherever is easiest

Cheers Mr Noisy!
No idea why they never sold these mounts seperately, they make the ones I've seen at shows look like they're made of chocolate!! Just a bit disappointed I never got to use and abuse it myself!!

He is about to receive a Disco 5, being delivered on Saturday, we are thinking/hoping the front end will be the same as Disco 4...

Fingers crossed, I actually went on a tour at Solihull last week and saw them! The bumper and chassis mounts looked the same so we'll see. Does he have a winch as I'm keeping mine to put on my defender but I think my dad might be getting rid of the 9.5xp warn. It's got an albright solenoid for it too, again it's in awesome condition!

Spoke to him last night, says he thinks this one is not a discrete mount?

He needs one with the winch hidden...

No worries Mr Noisy, yeah it's the warn version that sticks out the front a bit.

Bummer, better for actual winching, worse for hiding the fact you have a winch.

Oh well

Haha, that's why I got it actually, figured it would be a bitch to spool when you can't see the winch drum

I can never get my head around how people manage with rear winches that are completely hidden, unless they just don't care.

Anyway GLWTS...
