Thread: ARB Bar for MY14 out soon

Interesting, Andy. I guess time will tell. My friend is thinking of a LR bar rather than wait for an ARB bar because he lives in a roo-rich area and was concerend about the wait.

I dont think there is even a Land Rover bar for the MY14 yet.

There's one on carsales, I couldn't post the pic from my stupid phone but it's def an MY14, the car is grey so have a look. It's on there for $83890 to make it easier to search. I still like the look of the ARB better😀

Exactly!😜 it may withstand an impact from a sparrow, but an Indian Mynah, forget it! Lol

I thought the same.

Saw one of these, almost identical to that photo - same colour D4 - on Stirling Highway a week or so ago. I noticed it particularly because it was on an MY14 D4 when I had been reading on here that you could not get any bar for your model yet.

Was going to say I'd seen an MY14 getting around with a bar on it - it's that one. It's up at Alto's. It's been around for a while so probably a demonstrator. I'm sure the bar would have been fitted by them.

Not only incredibly ugly, but looking at the way they are made and fitted I really can't see them doing much if you hit a roo. The uprights and hoop are quite flimsy. It fits too closely to the front of the car and the top of the main hoop is bolted to the radiator support panel just underneath the bonnet. I would think any impact would be transmitted directly to the front of the car.

Cheers,

What is the story on opposite lock bars for MY14? Website says 2009 onwards. Are we sure they don't fit?

Ps. They called ARB again twice over two days. Different people each time and they verified what the dealer told them. No ARB til Jan at earliest and they have "not put pen to paper" as far as design goes. I dunno what it's all about.
