Defender winch bumper Britpart DA5643

[meatblanket]

Just like it says, Britpart DA5643 winch bumper for Defender with A/C.

It's nearly new. Bolted it on and discovered it is for A/C, which I don't have. It has been coated with rattle can bedliner, which helps keep gravel from chipping off the powder coat (that's a Colorado thing). Located in Golden CO.

$200 plus shipping.

I tripped over this thing recently. Will consider all offers, even shitty ones.

For what it's worth, it is made of thicker steel than the TerraFirma bumper that replaced it.

So how far does it really stick out from a regular factory blade?

 

[meatblanket]

It puts the winch approximately 2" further forward than necessary if you don't have the protruding rad panel that is associated with A/C.

The point of it is to allow room for a winch without cutting the plastic grill on A/C equipped Defenders.

Blanchard shipped this with my truck back in 2011 and I didn't realize it was the wrong bumper for my application until this year. While I could have used it as is, I didn't want the winch hanging further forward than necessary.

Awe! After all the time waiting for my bumper stuff, I'd have bought this one in a heartbeat! GLWS

Thanks for the answer. It makes sense now.
GLWS. I'm not sure I would want it to stick that far either. If you just want it to disappear let me know.

They're surprisingly strong bumpers. I bought one from another Forum member that have been modified with an a bar. It houses a 12K synthetic winch and has pulled me free multiple times without a squeak
