Overland Training Range Rover gets upgrades

The Overland Training Range Rover needs a few additional items for training purposes. So this weekend they were installed:

First was a Ramsey Patriot 9500 winch. Installing the winch was pretty straight forward except for the slight clearance modifications that had to be made to the Safari Gard bumper. Clearance problems also disallowed the use of the second Safari Gard recovery point. RoverTracks supplied us with a hawse fairlead for this install. The second modification was a set of Lightforce 140 Lance lights, also for the front bumper.

And finally Viking Offroad supplied us with a synthetic winch line with a safety thimble. I got it in orange for training purposes.

Now the Range Rover is just about ready to go. Final additions will be an awning and a packing system.
