Nice to meet you! I'm Tavi, from Romania and delighted to find you here.
My off road vehicle is a Nissan Patrol K160 SWB.
Has an upgraded Procomp custom suspension, bodylift, 35/11.5/15 Silverstone on 7JX15 ET-50 steel rims, CB radio, etc.

It needs a winch, racing seats and some bumpers in the very future.
I use the car only offroad.

Some pictures :

Can somebody help me with some drawings of a custom winchbar? Any ideea will help.
Many thanx!

I would reccomend starting by looking for all sorts of pics of other people bumpers and then stealing/using some of their ideas to create your own.

Are you wanting to use tube? or just plate metal (like an arb bumper) or......??

Hi again and thanx. I've collected a lot of pics with winchbars until now. I like how ARB or AFN copyes look. I think I'll start to make one these days. I promise that I will keep you informed.

Nice Patrol!! Here is my writeup. Uses OEM trun signals for a clean look. About 60 lbs. The trick is making the bumper upside down.

@nissannut - thanx a lot for the tips and pictures. By the way ... your Pathfinder is great!

welcome Tavi; i dig the patrol. Want to see more pics of what its like to 4wheel in Romania.

Hi @nissanrondo and thank you for the welcome words.

I live in Romania, in a small town called Ramnicu Valcea, surrownded by hills and mountains. I and a few friends have a club, called White Wolves Offroad Club.

Most of our trips are presented here : http://wwoc.3xforum.ro/topic/11/Intalniri_la_sfarsit_de_saptamana/

You don't have to know the language, pics and films are everything. Just click on the treads and you will see them.

Anyway, I'll try to post some here, too.

Completely awesome photos. I would absolutely LOVE to hang out in the Romanian country side.

I favorited that. I'm definitely making a smiley face on all of my differentials from here on out.
