thanks

I have a 60 Kaymar on the rear of my 75 and the mounting points are too far apart for the frame members, so the PO added shims to make up the space, but the pushes the bumper back about 3" and screws with the clearance angle. On the upside, I have about 9" of counter space in lieu of a tailgate.

This is not a very good one, but you can see the end of the frame under the doors, then a 1/2" plate on the outside faces, then the mounting plate on the kaymar. Since I make custom furniture, I capped it with a piece of purpleheart wood. We need a new front bumper someday, so keep me posted what you find.

: durable and beautiful (that's its natural color).

SWEET! I will post the result from ours, I have a set came from a 60 series, we are using them both cause we are installing a pto factory winch!

Maybe try a mock up 1st. Bullbars from 60 series on 70 series look too big and too small the other way around. (IMO)

I'm in the process of fitting a 60 series ARB winch bar on my hj75 so this may sound strange but I like the look of it as the two center bars seem a lot narrower giving the headlights plenty of room unlike the 70 series bars . The bull bar width and height suits the hj75 but the mounting needs a few plates and some cutting to get to fit. This ARB bar I'm modifying suits the Warn 8274 winch but undecided what winch to run at this stage.
