Factory Alloy Bar and Winch

[MjWatt]

Hi,

I've got a factory alloy bar on my 2013 Nav, can a winch be fitted to these bars or is it a replace with ARB / TJM winch bar?

(ARB / TJM or the like)

Cheers,

Anyone got a winch on their factory alloy bar?

I don't believe the factory alloy bars are winch compatible. You might have to go a steel bar or a winch rated alloy bar.

There was someone on here not long any who made his own cradle to mount a winch just with the stock bumper on, so there's no reason you couldn't do that with an alloy bar. You'd just have to be a bit creative making enough room for the fairlead, that's all...
