Thread: D3 Bar pics

None. Yet.

Very smooth Jamo. Wont be able to miss that when we are down in Esperance next month. What part of Esperance do you live in?
My neighbours up here are in the process of moving down around the Castletown area about 100metres from the beach.

Hi Craig
Let us know when you are heading down there.If there is a long weekend happening we could arrange a AULRO Esperance get together,Jamo could lead a offroading day out. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
My missus wants to go to esperance to meet up with a cousin so I dont think we will have a problem.

Safari will be bringing out a snorkel. The rest of the accessories will be created (or not) dependent on user demand. What the D3 really needs is a long-range tank, spare wheel carrier and cargo barrier. Unfortunately, the side airbags interfere with the latter.

LR actually produces what they call a 'Cargo Barrier" to ECE regulation 17 (Part No VUB501170). You can also get an extra divider setup for the rear for carrying dogs.

I don't know if it meets Australia Standard, but does show that a cargo barrier can be developed around the airbag system.

I also note that LR has already posted fitting instructions on the GTR website for the Mantec designed snorkel.

Craig,

I'm in the area known as 'Warren Heights' which is basically Town Central. We run our business from home.

My mobile is 0414 969 396.

Andrew, It would be good to have a AULRO get together. There's hundred of km of beach out there!

G'day mate again,

Just looking at the setup of the bar, winch etc, what roughly would one be looking at to set that up and also any reason why you didnt run with the LR setup ie bull bar/winch and went with ARB. I know for when I start to seriously a) go off road and do more travelling I will require these components, and always good to get some advice from those with the experience,

Regards

Stevo

The bar was $1610; the winch $2,161; and the Dynamica Rope was $577; fitting was $285.00.

I didn't go with LR because their brush bar and nudge bar are just as expensive, but not as strong. The LR winch is the same one, A Warn 9.5xp, but they wanted over $6,000 for the setup. The only advantage with the LR setup is the winch tray is designed to drop under the car in the event of a frontal impact and the remote connector is built into the grille.
