I'm currently in the planning stage of setting up my PB Challenger as I want to make it a more capable tourer/4x4 vehicle, and I want to install all accessories before doing any suspension work(thinking I'll go through Oztek) . When I first purchased the car I added a rhino rack (which I'm really happy with and some aftermarket wheels. I have since decided to take the wheels off as I'm not happy with the offset and 9" width of the wheel. The stock wheels are going back on tomorrow and getting wrapped in some decent Falken A/T tyres.
My main concern with the vehicle is trying to stay within GVM and trying to stay under the front axle load limit. I have decided to ditch my plans for a heavy rear drawer system and will make up a small ply arrangement that will work with plastic tubs and house my fridge and aux battery.
However I'm trying to come to a solution for the front of the car as I'm going to need skippy protection (which a smart bar could offer at low kgs) but this bar doesn't seem to offer winch compatibility. Not many of the bull bar manafacturers seem to offer up the weights, I'd be guessing the Xrox bar may be a little lighter due to it's tubing construction, the stying isn't to everyones taste but I don't mind the look.
I know there's a good chance there is no solutions to my GVM concerns without comprimising on other functionalities, but just wanted to see if anyone has any ideas/experiences to share?
Cheers
