    D3 Accessories

    Hi All,
    Having just bought my 2005 D3, I need to add some accessories.

    At the top of my list is a Hayman-Reese style towbar hitch (& electrics).

    Second is a cargo barrier.

    Third is a bull bar (NOT a nudge bar). I'd probably prefer steel & a winch bar, but I wouldn't be fitting a winch at this stage. I suspect that fitting a steel bar will require upgrading the front springs. Any arguments of steel .vs. Al alloy would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Peter

    Thanks HSVRangie,
    I must admit to having a "soft spot" for ARB bars. I've had one for years on my D1 and it has served me very well.

    Mitchel Bros? I haven't heard of them. I guess that they are in VIC. I'll do a search.

    Best Wishes,
    Peter

    I have looked at their website, which doesn't have a lot of info.

    The UK forum was informative, however.

    Have sent them an email, asking to be kept informed.

    Thanks for your efforts,
    Peter

    ARB winch bar.

    I take it you've bought a coil sprung model, so you can get King Springs with a 50mm lift or 65mm lift if your State laws allow. There's info on disco3 about that too.

    You're quite right. I do have a coiler.

    What's disco3?

    www.disco3.co.uk

    It's dedicated to D3's and there is a thread or two there about coil lifts.

    But I'm not sure if I'm meant to mention it here or not.
