Thread: Bullbar Fitment

I understand that the bar was off a Rangie in the first instance.


Ta,

Mike

It will fit with some small mods.
If it has originally come from a Classic RR to a Def & now to a D1 all will be good as i have just helped a mate do the same(no def tho)
Cheers
Does the D1 have airbags, if it has then u will need the crush cans(if TJM bars have them) to be legal.

If it was originally off a rangie it would have looked a bit pox on the defender, the defender mounts are different, as they bolt top-bottom as oppossed to side-side, also if it was of a rangie, it wont fit the disco well at all, as it, doesn;t wrap around the sides well and sits to far back into the grill area and needs some cutting

Although Disco bars bolt on rangies fine

Thanks for your help boys. I will see how is goes...now that l know it is 'possible' l will bull that factory "pretty bar" off and start playing!

Technically, I'm not a fan of this either as they stick our further

But a disco bar on a rangie fits far better than a rangie bar on a disco
