Hey up people, to cut a long story short, fitted my superwinch lp10000 in the week and went to give it a trial run today, and BOOM the winch ripped the front bumper clean off, now this kap bumper was supposed to be welded on ( by blue tack ), ive got a video somewhere ill post it soon,
Anyone got a photo of how they welded it on, and properly, lesson learned should have checked the welds really, was done by the previous owner

I'd say, that if you have a winch that can snap 4 12mm bolts. Then it's not mounted on a jimny 
As far as I know, ARB winch bumpers are bolted on.
I have just bought myself an ORA bumper. Have not seen it yet myself as I'm not home until start of may. But I actually believed that is was supposed a bolt-on. However, I'll bolt it on no matter what
