new to forum Bar Question

hey everyone,
this is my first post and also this site convinced me to buy a navara, i ended up getting a d22 single cab steel tray on saturday and loving it... pretty stock i believe, just a question on the bull bar... i can't really tell through other peoples picks if my bull bar is winch compatible... have a look at pics and see wat you recon... i think it is but i'll need to replace a plastic thingy with a steel plate but i'm not sure let me know... the nav is dirty cause i went bush on sunday nothing to serious, did pretty well considering i was following a kitted out hilux lol...



bit anoying to get pics up

Since no one else has posted yet.

Yes that bar is designed for a winch.

I edited your pics to, one above the other is easier to view instead of side by side.

Oh and welcome and congrats on the purchase. Hope she serves you well.

Like Dave, yes its winch compatible...

and yay for another D22 to the forum, enjoy your machine...

Big mistake - you bought a D22!

oh thanks Bosshog,

do you know where you get the winch plate from...

You dont need a winch plate.

Just bolt a winch to it.

welcome to the forum
if we didnt have winches on our d22's how would you d40 drivers get unstuck ?

navpups ... get hold of Niss4x4 at Williamstown in melbourne - see what Adam can find for you.

Sparra ... easy, just call Woody - i'll help any D40 anywhere anytime ... just so us D40 drivers dont have to stoop down to a D22 for help.

Is this true?
They are selling new nissan steel bars on ebay for $850, but it says for 97-01 non airbag. I have 02 non airbag so these might fit on?

It should be to 03. 04 started with the airbag so it should be compatible
