Default bend the bars

I took the advice I found on this forum and used some steel pipe to bend the headrests to a better position. No change to the headrest other than the angle. No cost and no VICROADS/ADR or anything else issues. It worked a treat.

I hope this has helped.
cheers piggy.
My JK is on order. Apparently arrives April or May. Have already made contact with Stu and have som stuff on order from him. it will be getting some kit out prior to delivery. Stu and Northstar have already made arrangments. helps being on cost at delivery.

I am however, located in South/West side. Around the Oxley/Corinda area. it would be handy to have someone closer.... I think I popped in to one of your stores today, Beaudesert rd on the western side not far from Kessells??

Anyways, if thats you, i will pop by more once I get the car and need more kit. Am trying to locate all the good 4X4 dealers near me, as I am very new to the 4X4 world!

Hope to catch up soon.

Cheers

On mine I put the rhino platform tray on it, they have been tested at 400kg down weight, on mine I have a 40" LED light bar, TREDS, Foxwing awning, & a roof top tent(that go's on & off when I need it). AEV also do one much similar.
Stu at MURCHINSONS now has access to the OUT4X4 product.

So glad you posted that Piggy! I went to the Tinny, tackle and 4X4 show last week. I visited the Rhino stand where they had a Foxwing on display. Asked the guy about cost to get on a 2013 JK and he said "Cant be done on any Jeep." Started showing a bunch of other stuff and asked how much i want to leave as a deposit and handed me about 10 brochures on crap I didnt ask about... and which promptly went in the bin.

I was planning to post a thread on here asking about it and you saved me the trouble.

Looks like I might have to have a chat to you or Stu about it in the near future!! Might get the car first though! Looking like May at this stage but I have big plans once I do get it.....
