Bull Bar

Has anyone found a nudge/bullbar in Aus for the sport yet? I am thinking about getting the D3 bar and trying to make it fit. Ben

Thanks Slimer. All they supply here is a 'wrap around nudge bar'. This isnt going to do much if you happen to strike a kangaroo. I was hoping to get something more substantial. Ben

The D3 version isn't going to be much more help than the RRS one in that sort of scenario (even if you can make it fit), do ARB do one for the RRS yet?
Due to air-bag compatibility even bars like the one ARB do for the D3 are only designed for one big hit (presumably from a large roo or similar) then need to be replaced. Apparently the mounting brackets deform and are not repairable Confused

I had heard that ARB had begged, borrowed or stolen a RRS to start building a Bull-bar, but this was a few months back and I haven't heard any updates since.

If you do find something please post it to the forum as I am keen to get one as well. Just a white TDV8 with a few extras

Hi Working Dog. I would be more than happy to let them use mine to develop a bull bar. I might have to make a phone call! Ben

Rangie, I was told by the guys at ARB head office that they were looking into developing a "Sahara" type bar for the Sport,
This was about 6-8mnths ago when they borrowed a vehicle from us.
Not sure what happened, but if enough people enquired i am sure it may PUSH them into designing one sooner rather than later. 01 D2 Bonatti TD5

Keep Smilin' Pete.
