See the 5 part video series on installing the winch on PowerfulUKLTD He also has a video on installing the front undershield. Both VERY interesting ....

I will be installing them both at the same time to avoid removing the bumper twice. IF AND WHEN my dealer can order them .....

^^ Dang! Looks like it might be easier to make a Jeep ride well on the highway than it will be to make a Defender able to pull itself out of a stuck!

I installed my winch, and it was considerably more work than I anticipated, but with the correct tools was able to knock it out on a Saturday

Well, that's not too bad. I think it took me that long the first time I ever did one, on a stock Jeep bumper. I'm sure this job is much more involved.
