    I think it was a pain to align them but I must have been able to do it.

    I wonder why Kaymar didn't do that? It seems the logical thing to do.

    I believe that they didn't do that in order to align them easily

    I emailed Kaymar the other week about doing a re-run of their bar if I could get X number of people to put deposits down, this was their responce. Somehow I don't believe that they don't have the drawings / CAD....


    Hi Benji

    Unfortunately the side wings of the bar we manufactured for this vehicle where cast alloy and the castings have been destroyed.

    We do not have jigs, drawings etc available at all for this bar.

    So we are unable to assist you on this product.

    so essentially they are saying they made a sub-standard product and they do not keep documentation for products no longer on the line?

    This sets off all kinds of alarm bells in terms of customer service, consumer protection, and record-keeping compliance.

    I think I'd be wary of recommending Kaymar for any product based on the experiences of folks on this forum.

    I suspect they also decided that the tojo market was far larger and therefore potentially more lucrative... ah well!

    At least they admitted they had done them (once upon a time)!

    I fear it may be a case of Kaymar protecting their intellectual property, however I tend to think if they're not going to use this CAD in the future, then they should release it, or sell it. Pretty poor form!

    From my reading it's only rockrover that makes a rear bar / tire carrier now.

    I'm pretty sure Hard Range have front and rear bars available to order.
