Thread: What bullbars are the US and Africa chaps using?

Hi Perkj,

It would be interesting if you could pass on the bar specs and price you paid over there in the US as we are getting highly suspicious that our retailers are killing us (on all sorts of stuff)

I recently read a story of an Aus bloke purchasing an ARB suspension lift kit from a US dealer to ship back to Aus and the savings were $350Aus over the local dealer (fitting excl)

If you buy a set of ARB lockers from the right supplier, the dollars right and if you can get good freight it's around the same price as one fitted here.

Bilstein shocks come valved to order from the states, here it's additional, up to $400+ each. Same with Fox, a set, again valved to order, landed is about $1300- as opposed to over $800- each + valving locally.

Tell me I'm not sore from taking it from local sellers.

Ditto as ARB telling me you could only do a bar on TDV6 D3 and I thought they were petrol only in US.

This is not a bad link re ARB and other bull bars.

Brush Guard for LR4. (Part II) - Land Rover and Range Rover Forums

Hope the link works! Was wondering what a Nara Bronze colour coded ARB would look like. Pretty sure that's my choice, whenever they have one for a HSE. By the comments on Facebook from previous link, it shouldn,t be too far away.

$200 extra is a bit steep. I was quoted a difference of $130 at ARB in Osborne Park in Perth.

Standard supply - they all come with the blanking plate. (unless you have the winch fitted). We've been getting ARB Winch Bars fitted to our new site work utes (Colorados) as they are more readily available than the non-winch variety. We don't have winches installed, and all bars have the blanking plates.

Mungus -- What are those LED lights attached and how are they working...

They look like the Vision X 6LED 'Solistice'

Would be interested to hear of their performance vs. HID setup.

What wnch is that ?
Also this looks like the first pictured HSE ARB bullbar I have seen with surround cameras incorporated... Yea. I am off to ARB !
