That is very nice but I cant see it being legal in NSW with those open vertical edges and forward protrusions , there is bulbar blitz going on around here at the moment.

chopper I think the forward protrusions are not forward they look like they are actually set back in the bar to me..they are for bow shackles to be attached.
I would have that bar in a heart beat if it wasn't for the more frontal protection I'm after this time. however I wouldn't mind some of the foot grips for the ARB

I see what you are saying about the recovery points but I was also looking at the vertical plates inline with the outside edges of the chassis rails that have been left "unwraped"
I am not particularly in favour of the laws , I think cars belong on roads and pedestrians belong on the footpath and a car should give way to people at a crossing and people should give way to cars elsewhere and mothers should hang onto little children around roads and dogs.
I also love the bar.

Understand the concerns about these protruding plates. We can get it changed, no problems.
Price will probably be somewhere between $900 and $1,000. But nothing fixed at this stage.

Hi Jimb,
We can get them in if there is enough interest. They are manufactured in South Africa by the same company making the chassis for our Mission Trailers.
Regards,
Daniel

Just a curious question.... In this land of kangaroos why would you want a front bar with so little protection? Are the advantages purely aesthetic?

Hi,
I would certainly be interested. Living in a land without 'roos I am looking for something exactly like this. 2 questions: where does the number plate go? and can it fit Air Con vehicles?
Cheers
