Default ARB Bullbar advice/help please!

Hi Everyone, I recently got an ARB bar for my 17 JK rubcion. Bar looks great, but ive noticed there are no crush cans installed. I Got the bar installed by ARB.

I know there are different opinions on the crush cans, but seems pretty slack for an actual ARB store to skip it.

Ive also read some JKs here in aus didnt actually come with crush cans, although i remember on my 11 sport it had them.

Can anyone help out with some info?
Cheers

On my '12 there were no crush cans from the factory. I have an ARB front bar as well.

Did they change the way the air bags are triggered? Used to be the cans maybe?

I think its now an accelerometer (is that the term, lol), not sure it always was

Crush cans have never had nothing to do with air bags.

On Jeeps (TJ and JK), airbags are not triggered by sensors on or around bumpers.
