The WK has been in the top 4 best selling 4x4 wagons and in the top 10 best selling of all 4x4's for the last 18 months, and out sells Amorok, FJ cruiser and pajero every month!
It's time for ARB to look at the real sales figures, pull there heads out of the sand and produce fro the fastest growing segment of 4x4's in Aus
"The GC is our next priority, we should start in the next couple of months"
Sounds just like
Are we there yet?, are we there yet?, It's just around the next corner son!
Yet another fob off from ARB

I have found a crowd in the US that do a bar that hides behind the bumper and can take a 12000ib winch. I am checking to see if the bar also works on a Overland.
Normally I wouldnt look at this as the bumper is still you first point of call if anything bumps you however, it may be possible for the Matrix 4x4 system front bar will fit with it. This would give a bit better protection, nothing like a real replacement bar (that everyone seems to make for Toyotas, Nissians and Mitzi's) but will look better that either a bolt-over (my opinion) or nothing.
Sticking point is the shipping cost for 'metal' from the states.
Now I have read all previous comments (sorry, got mine reading from newest to oldest) and see the comment from YankieDave is it? Dude, if you make a solid, replacement front bar that is real steel, ACCC compatible and able to be outfitted with winches, comms and lights for a 14,000 km drive around Australia, then I will be in.
The Matrix bar is a bush bar or something, so light duty.
