make some 10mm spacers to space the winch back a little then chop the top out to fit and remove the spot light tabs from the lower rail.

or sell it n buy a new bar

I have a high mount fitted to my deluxe bar. Removed the light bar and had a new one bent up and then welded it in, cut out angled braces to clear brake assy. and welded in 6mm packers. Will look for some pics and post them up.

Cheers, Shane ;)

This is the only pic I could find that shows what's been done. Could take a pic looking down on the winch if your interested ;)

Cheers, Shane.
