Just outside chch, so far I've rebuilt the motor and front and rear diffs, lock rite front and rear, front diff is steel, 3 inch suspension lift, winch bar with a 9500lb runva, rock sliders, LED light bar etc just got to get the top coat on and wiring up dual batteries and some kind of rear bar that will house the high lift jack.

FTS lift kit not sure how it'll go seems to hard at the moment but will soon find out. Winch was made by ORE member loppee in rolly, top bloke and makes a damn good bar. Would love to see what your rear bar turns out like.

Has brackets that bolt to two factory holes where the bumper mounts to I believe on the side and then drill a third through the front, then simply bolt the bar to the brackets, I'm adding in another to tie it back to that round bar that goes across the front of the chassis.

Yes you do, especially if you want to pass a WOF.
