Hi all

Hoping someone can help.

I have a 57' plate defender 110 and brought the soft friendly A-bar from ebay, fitted it and it looks great with the spots, however, I have found out that Land Rover did versions for use with or without a winch bumper.

Does anyone know the exact differances between both versions of the soft A-Bar (LR005235 & LR5742) as both seem to have the same dimensions as per the Land Rovers Accessories website?

The one I have which I believe is LR005235 has 45 degree cut outs on the inside of the upright and looks like it was to fit a winch bumper but I dont know anyone with a defender standard winch bumper to try it on.
The fitting instructions for the non winch version even shows these cut outs.

As I am thinking about fitting a winch, this would cost enough money let alone trying to source a new winch freindly soft A-Bar.

Many thanks

Hi

Only main difference between the winch and non winch A bars are the cross bar down the bottom, underneath where the driving lamps would go

If you have the non winch version, a winch won't fit without some cutting
