Hi All,

I'm looking to drop a fairly small electric winch I have, in behind the front bumper on my P38. Has anyone done similar and if so are there any off the shelf mounting brackets that are 'cheap' (ish)/ not too heavy before I look a either making one or having one made? It's not for heavy loads - 6000lb max winch and looking to be able to move rolling trailers up to perhaps 1500kg on a slight gradient (1:15'ish) that I currently shove around by hand with the aid of chocs, bricks and effort alone! I wondered (don't laugh!) about a hinged reg plate holder and hide the fairlead behind the plate... As a 'plan B' does anyone know if there's any attachment available for the towing eye other than a hook/strap? I don't need to leave it connected, although would obviously be easier... Space is too tight for hitching up and trailers are also often 'nose' in - pull is usually up the driveway so basically using P38 as an anchor point.

Thanks.

There's a place in France. There was a link on here a while back. Fits under the bumper. Only hassle I might see is it might obstruct the cooling on the intercooler if you've got the diesel. I'll try and dig out the link ...

Here we go. This might help?

And following the trail to RR Evolution website (no affiliation):

Attelage avant Carré US pour Range Rover P38 / Front Mount Hitch Receiver for Range Rover P38 - Vue détaillée de l'article - RR-EVOLUTION pièces et accessoires pour Range Rover P38

Lots of underbody protection stuff available on there too.

Awesome thanks. I will a have a browse through that over the weekend - the tray kit from RR Evolution looks ideal! I couldn't play the first link in the other thread, but had already found the site from 996Turbo's page.

I've a fairly cheap/low powered winch, but although that's a bit overkill I can always upgrade the pulling power later...

Cool. Post up pics when you're done!
