No bullbar
 

Spent some time at the Brisbane tinnie 4wd show. After speaking with ARB, iron man and ECB there is no bar for the 2012 WK. the ECB bar they have will not fit 2012 model.they may adjust the 2011 bar to fit at some stage ,but not yet. My CRD is about 3-4 months away I have ordered it with the adventure pack 2 it seams to be a good deal as there is no under body protection otherwise. The dealer will trade the crappy on road tires for coopers. If there are enough enquires to the bar makers the situation might change by then

this is contrary to what myself and many others have heard. there are numerous threads on here and other forums stating that ARB has a bar on the way and that ECB is currently working on changing their design to fit 2012 models. I wouldnt go by what the people at the show have to say (particularly ARB) as they are only salesmen and they often don't have the whole truth.

one more thing i should add... the ARB bar is due around mid this year and most likely the ECB one will be out before that

1 MORE THING!! post this in the grand cherokee threads and you'll get a lot more responses...

Pretty well what ARB have responded with to my internet query. I'd say that who you spoke with was simply not aware of this. ARB would be silly not to do one, as they export to the US, and the Grand Cherokee is a massive seller there.

The Caravan & Camping Supershow is on at Rosehill towards the end of April, and ARB always displays there. I'll talk to them then and see what they say.

There hasnt been a word out of TJM though. I have enquired but zero response.

Bar
 

I picked up my new Grand this week and have paid in advance for the new bar with the order placed with ECB. They quote 60 to 90 days. I hope sooner than later but i think if you dont put your money where your mouth is the suppliers are gessing as to the build volume. So if you want a bar order it asap and the pressure will be on for sooner.

An update ....Spoke to Stephen at ecb and he tells me that the tec guys have had a JGC 2012 in and finalised the fitting info......he thinks that they should be in production in 2/3 weeks....I hope so ..Oh and he confirmed my order so thats great .
