Thread: Bullbar issues

ARB used to make them, I had one on my v8i.

Your best bet these days is gumtree or ebay second hand. Perhaps place a wanted ad here too?

get an xrox bar? bought one for my 97 discovery with airbags

they are still up there in price I'm sure xrox are still 15/1700

keep your eye on the Markets I know there will be an ARB coming up very soon

There was a recent thread on D1 bull bars
http://www.aulro.com/afvb/discovery-...ilability.html

personally I'd be reluctant to fit a non airbag compatible bar on a vehicle with airbags as besides the obvious safety concerns the insurance would most likely be void if you were in a major prang.

yea cheers guys the arb is just a bit too expensive and ive found the xrox bar at half the price nearly so that looks like a go'er, might go check around some wreckers or keep an eye out as you mentioned dull bird yea discomark you bring up a good point with the insurance and safety concerns and definitely don't want there to be safety issues!

I picked up an xrox bar for $1075 (5% discount after laying down a 50% deposit) at opposite lock in Newcastle. I spent the best part of 8 months keeping an eye on ebay/tradingpost/wreackers/gumtree before giving up.

Bear in mind in a smallish accident a Air bag approved bar will take the impact through its specially designed mounts where as a non air bag bar will push it through the front chassis rails potentially causing alot more damage to the vehicle rather than bar/mounts.

I put up some photos 2-3 months ago (mid Dec) on this forum of a bar I got from Victoria.
