New in our assortment: winch mounting kit for the Toyota Hilux - tested for safety

The terrain capabilities of the Toyota Hilux are legendary. On the toughest terrains and in the remotest corners of the earth, it has earned a reputation for indestructibility and unconditional reliability. But even a Hilux can reach its limits in difficult terrain. This is where the rope winch comes in and expands the range of motion of the Hilux.

In this way you make yourself and the Hilux independent. But the advantages of a strong winch go beyond the pure self-recovery possibility. This means that other vehicles can also be rescued, and it is an indispensable equipment when a lot of power is needed.

In addition to a winch, Hilux' wish list also includes a pedestrian protection guard. Since mounting both accessories usually collide, the assembly has always caused difficulties or was only possible with structural changes. An inspection of the attachment by the TÜV also poses increasing difficulties, as most of the available winch attachment kits are not tested for the pedestrian impact.

Nevertheless, in our opinion a real offroader like the Toyota Hilux is only complete if it has a strong winch as well as a pedestrian protection front guard. That is why the Ullstein Concepts team has taken up this issue and presents the first winch mounting kit with a combined pedestrian protection guard for the Toyota Hilux. This kit was positively tested regarding the pedestrian protection impact following the EC Directive 2005/66/EC.

Together with the mounted winch set on a Toyota Hilux, our pedestrian protection guard underwent extensive crash tests and was E-approved. Our TÜV parts certificate for the winch kit confirms the positive crash behaviour, so that there can be no unpleasant surprises during the homologation process.

The long durability of the winch mounting kit is provided by a KTL coating, underneath a powder coating. The pedestrian protection front guard is made of stainless steel and is either highly polished or powder-coated in black.

You can choose between MaiStone ComeUp winches or the Australian TJM TORQ winches to match the winch mounting kit.
If required, we can also supply winches in accordance with DIN standard EN 14492-1 (Cranes - Power driven winches and hoists).
