Another Wellington Noobie

As the title says, I am a 4wd newbie from Wellington.
Done a small amount of offroad stuff during my uni years working for the regional council. All in the beast of a Diahatsu Feroza. Managed to get it into (and out of) some places that I never thought it would.
Recently purchased a 98 Rodeo as my daily driver. Has a ARB bullbar, 9500lb winch. Seems as though someone before me was keen on upping its potential.
Interesting in getting into this 4wd madness, all for a bit of fun. Took the Rodeo over red rocks on Saturday - had a blast as was happy with the way it all went.
Would be keen for a Experienced Wellington forum member to have a look over my ute and see what they think/ what needs to be done.

dont let Jerry or Taz01 near it
otherwise it will never be finished, or completely remoddled!!!
just make sure you get some hooks mounted properly and you'll be away
and welcome to the maddness of the welly ORE crew (top bunch they are!!)

I had a look under the bar over the weekend, and it has a towq hook bolted to the bar on both sides. Didnt see is they were high tensile bolts or not.
