My NT LWB has a 2" chassis extension for RUF and a bar mount like this. Do the chassis extension 1st, or make allowances for the extension if you do the bars 1st.

Would the arb style mounts hold a 12000lb winch.

No I am pretty sure the ARB bar mounts are only made to take the 6000 pound winch? You might have to make stronger mounts? thicker steel plate and bolts?

the other thing to consider with a arb bar is that people cut 50% of the mounts off so they can fit bigger tyres.

The chassis rail mounts on the ARB are shit and piss weak.
I thought my mounts were some farm hack dodge mounts, then i saw a proper ARB bar.. same stupid mounts.
