Winch Bumper

[Jas278]

Defender with Aircon , do they require a special winch bumper  ?

[idratherbesurfing]

yes, you need the aircon type bumper.  the non aircon ones sit further back cos they havent got the aircon cooler thingy in the way (i think)  :D

Pretty sure they specify with/without aircon for most decent bumpers

Next question..........  who does one to take a Warn winch ?

Tried Guardian?

Jason ,

Don't think you'll need an aircon bumper - your 90 doesn't have the extended nose for the a/c kit.

The A bar thats on the 90 is a non A/C type.

The A/C that's fitted was retro fitted at the dealer when new , but it doesn't have the extended nose that factory fitted a/c systems have for the condensor matrix and fans so you should be able to fit  non a/c gear to it.

If i remember correctly the system was fitted by a company called coolair uk ltd - think they were over lincoln way if you need to contact them - i contacted them when i got the truck and they were very helpful (think they only fit OEM spec kits now with the extended nose).

Yes - non a/c 90 bumper on mine (with a Goodwinch 9.5tds) and very pleased with the product - just confirm the dimensions of the winch you wish to fit and he'll make sure it's fabricated to suit.
 If you send him the install template (on the Warn Website if you've lost it!) he can pre drill for you as well.
