was going to recommend.............

tjm.com.au

but the website is useless and lacks info and has little to no info on products, so check out ARB instead......



http://www.arb.com.au/Suzuki/BULLBAR_Suzuki1.jpg


or search around on here long enough and you will find guys that have built bars or brought some brand from somewhere

shite, I just clicked on my own link and thats nearly as useless as the other one


seems these companies want you to go to a dealer to check out the range, so they at least have you in the door

Thanks for that skid, :) had a look at alot of after market bullbars. ARB suzuki bull bars have to be ajusted to fit this model. Calmini has good looking bars. The only thing with all these after market bumpers is theyre so heavy the puddle jumper would drag its belly :lol:

Hi pr, the thing with buying a bar of any of these 4wd accessories places is the price. Id rather design my own and save myself $700 + dollars.

Hey Bigbear.

I think your front end is slightly different to mine (older 1600 3Dr) but the priciple should work if you want a monster bar that will demolish medium-sized buildings:
