On the 8th Day God made the LandRover -
On the 9th day he swapped it for a Jimny.

That's what I did.
Bit of 2 inch box from blacksmith, very scarce size apparently, but got enough to do back as well.

I mean a hitch like the one below, so I could fit a winch cradle to it when it's needed

Why not a permanent mounted winch behind the bumper ?
