Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Had a quick search couldn't find anything. Very soon I'm about to start building a new tube winch batter for my 86 model hilux. Was just wondering what thickness plate do you guys think. Was leaning toward 3mm with bracing.

Also what tube thickness do you use? It's going to be 2" tube. Haven't thought much about thickness until now.

Cheers cohen

I'm no expert but just medium wall tube (3.2) is heaps and easy to get. I generally use 6mm for mount plates, And 2mm sheet to fill bits in...

Was um shore on filling in the gaps. Thinking diamond plate will make the bar then try it for looks.

Whatever you do don't dimple die every bit of flat plate that's on the winch bar, it's will come out looking like a mutant cheese grater/ bull dozer.....

arb use 2.3mm wall pipe.
agree dont use checker plate, floor plate or some nuf nufs call it propellor plate, it will look nasty and CHEAP.
