Default WK2 Bull bar thread

Hi YankeeDave.
Looking good, can't wait to see to finished product!, will the Aluminium bar look the same ?.
Also are you going to make the bar compatible with the 2011 WK2's (50mm longer front "sub frame" & 2x factory front tow hooks).
Cheers Yoda

Yes the ally bar will look identical,

I'll need to have a look at the 2011 to see if this bar will fit. If it's longer where I think it is, then it will just be a different bracket behind the bull bar that gets changed.

Thanks Dave.
I'd give you my 2011 to look at but I live in Darwin .


Could some one who lives in Vic with a 2011 WK2 contact YankeeDave and arrange for him to be able to have a look at the 2011 front end, so he can make his bars 2011 compatible.
Cheers Yoda

3rd pic is side view
They look like 35's in those pic's - how can I get them on my WK2?

Seriously though - it looks good. Will it have integrated recovery points?

Accept that everyone's wish list will be different, but I'm happy to cut my bumper to fit this bar and winch mount. Otherwise I would have just bought the ecb one.
