i have 2 arb bars one fits well but is a bit bent and the other one is
a winch bar with the mounts hacked off and some damage to one off
the side bits.
problem is i have a winch that i wont to fit and the bar on my car
will be a bit hard to put a winch in as it is a bit not square. and it
would take a fair bit of work to fit my winch bar.
so what i was thinking off doing was to cut the winch bit out of the
winch bar and then glue it in my non winch bar. is that problem solved?

so you want to take the midel section out and weld it into the other bar so you can use a winch?
if it is how good can you weld? personaly if you dont weld for a living then i would uses any parts you welded for recovery. my winch bar is 100% bolt on

as long as the main cradle part is the piece that bolt's to your chassis shouldnt be a problem. Then just weld the outer sections to your new center
