110 Child restraint bar into 130 double cab

[sjl81]

Hi all,


hoping for a bit of advice, am purchasing a 2002 130 double cab which has a qld mod plate for a CRAB bar restraint, however it has been removed and was sold by current owner as had no further use for it.


I have found a CRAB bar for sale from a 1996 110.


my question is, does anybody know if this bar will fit the 130, I'm guessing the width of the bar will be right, just whether or not fitment i.e brackets etc will be the same? Or what will need doing to get it to fit?


Anybody have pics of theirs in their 130?


Thanks

My 1995 130 doesn't have a CRAB bar. The engineer who did the mod simply used the struts behind the seats with some reinforcing plates behind them. Hard to visualise without pictures, which I can't get to at the moment. Maybe chat to an engineer/certifier to see if there's an easier option?

So is that 3 anchor points you have? We definitely need the centre one as well as the other two.

That's a good question - I can't remember if we bothered with the centre.
