A-Frame which one ?

Ok the LR A-Frame (protection bar) is available (A) if you don't have a winch (VUB501210) or (B) if you do have a winch (VUB501230) the price is the same and I guess that (B) just has a different lower crossbar that enables you to install a winch.

I don't have a winch today, but may get one in the future so I guess (B) is the best option, but is there any good reason why you can't use this version even without a winch ? Has anyone done this Question

Winch version doesn't have the lower cross bar, fittings are the same, no reason why you couldn't fit it without a winch though you would have to modify/disable the front inner PDC sensors if you've got them

the official manufacturer of the FPS (Frontal protection system) is Concept Mouldings in Wolverhampton.
I see they have started to sell some of their range on Ebay under their new retail name of Endura.

thoser part numbers you quote are for the early pre May07 versions...
you cannot fit these part numbers as a new fit as of that date...EU law Rolling Eyes you can only replace if damaged in an accident or if replaced under warranty.

The newer more pedestrian freindly versions are available under these numbers

LR005237 Non Winch
LR005743 With Winch

if you fit the early and have an accident or something similar it could cause problems if they investigate Rolling Eyes Shocked

I thought it was just a change in mounting bracket
