    Are you talking about the antenna mounts??

    Cause Phils ARB Bar on his D4 had them in the same spot as the old ARB bar, just going on what I've seen.

    May have been a very early unit (or an old D3 production run.

    But they haven't since 2011.

    I do not know for sure but I believe the 285's rub on the bar return where it meets the front guard i.e. where you have to cut the flare off.

    I think this is due to the width not the diameter.

    I thought some one on here sold a set of the 285's because they were rubbing on the ARB bar.

    Again - I am not sure so perhaps some one with direct experience will confirm.
    Cheers

    Yeah they did Chuck. Michael (boofdtl) form Tyrepower Camberwell tried to fit them and they would not work.
    The owner PM'd me to check if mine definately fitted with my OL bar.

    Cheers, Craig

    Phils D4 was the first D4 fitted with an ARB bullbar, according to ARB Southern, the ARB bullbar for the D4 is different to the D3.

    Hi Canaussie,

    I was the unlucky one that had them fitted and found the ARB bar rubbed. It was in the lower section where the washer reserve had to sit (where the original bar has it)
    Even with LLAMS at 35mm articulation was still an issue. I could have done some mod to this plastic area, but I could see the steel bar support may have been an issue.
    The OL bar seems to not project as far back.

    Still got tyres for sale if anyone interested

    Gup
