Hi Mik,
If you do, I'm not that far up the road from them and would be keen to
finally meet you.

Mik, exhaust is fine. Just a very slight knock on the rear of the chassis as you start / stop the engine, nothing when running. Noise wise - well you hear the exhaust as opposed to the engine. I don't find this irritating but others might. I can only suggest that if you do come over, have a drive of mine, if OK have a similar system made and if too noisy - stick a second silencer box in.
I have also had a low profile winch bumper made. Similar to those made by Slee, with a bolt on top centre loop. Hi lift jack points, Scorpion Racing swivel recover hooks etc. Julian has digital photos - sorry I'm still an old fashioned film man ! I'm sure if you ask Julian nicely he will put a link in for you to access the photos.
The bar is well made, sits level, all welds ground smooth and finished in black powder coat - =A3 500 - I supplied the swivel hooks.
I now need an OME kit as the front suspension has settled nearly 35 mm !

Hi,
I have to say that I found Gareths exhaust to be too loud almost as if
it was amplifying the noise of the engine - a bit like the drainpipe
exhausts you get on older tractors.
I would definitely either go for another silencer or see if there was
some way to get them to reduce the noise.
As for photos of the winch bar, I'll send them over to you Gareth so
you do what you want with them.

Hey Gareth
What is the weight of the bumper to make your suspension sink 35mm. Geese
that is a lot is it not.

Mik, my opinion of the system today, is exactly the same as the day I collected it.
The build quality is excellent i.e. all the welds are good, there is no distortion of the side walls of the pipe (due to it being mandrel bent), the hangers are well fitted.
Problems - none.
Mileage - just over 3000.
The turbo spools up quickly due to very little back pressure.
Regards Gareth Jones.
