D44 SPECTRE BUMPER & GENUINE A BAR

Hello.

My D44 Spectre bumper has just arrived and I've collected a Genuine Defender Soft A bar this afternoon.

Does anyone know if I'm supposed to be cutting the part that's not letting it sit back and flush to the bumper? See photo.

TIA 👍🏻

I had to trip the inside edges of my A bar when I fitted it to a spectre bumper.

If you look at the back of the A bar, mine had “mould” marks where the cuts needed to be. Almost pre-formed areas that needed to be removed.

If you look from the from currently it may look splayed out at the bottom? 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html

I think the A-bar you have is for a std straight bumper - VPLPP0060, you need a different one for a winch or d44 spectre bumper - VPLPP0061 https://www.devon4x4.com/vplpp0061-protection-bar-408014.html

If its a genuine A bar you will see the tooling marks to cut to for a winch bumper as Roy pointed out Andy

Hello,
There is somewhere a tutorial to transform a VPLPP0060 in a VPLPP0061? I want to buy a winch and I have the soft A bar not ready for it.
Have anybody mount the winchmax with the winch bumper in a SVX front grille?

Thanks for your feedbacks.

Regards,
