1978 Lada Niva Restoration

Niva upgrades

Since I'm planning on putting a winch on the car, I decided to build an American style 2" hitch on the front bumper. I bought the universal hitch mount, but designed the actual hitch mount that would bolt on to the bumper and frame. Here you see some pictures. It all got powdercoated in black ,to make it look nice and keep it from rusting. The bottom picture shows the winch bumper .

I now have upgraded my Niva with sidesteps that slide into the 2 jack holes on the side of the car. Just need some aluminum diamond plate on the top. Hopefully this week.
