Hi,
I have a disco 1 that is automatic & has air con fitted. Can anyone recommend a suitable front winch bumper for it? ...Ideally with wrap-around ends. All the ones that I find say not suitable for auto or air con.

Have you looked at terrafirma bumpers?
That may give you a design

Pop the grill off for a look see if the trans cooler can be moved for more room?

The reason possibly is when a winch is fitted the airflow would be restricted.
Theres was a post a year or so from a owner of an auto whom was concerned about air flow so was looking for suggestions on rising the auto box oil cooler thats behind the grill higher, no mention of the AC condenser and the two fans, perhaps it didn’t have AC.
