Hi,

We also have a MY17 Trailhawk. Fitted with Mopar side rails and ARB Deluxe Bar. This is the second bar our local ARB team had fitted to a MY17 Trailhawk so were familiar with the 'work arounds' to make it fit. Absolutely stoked with the finish.

Cheers, Macca.

Looks good Macca. I also have a MY17 GC Trailhawk, white, and thinking about the bar as well. Steel I presume, heavy?

Hi Greg,

Yes, steel. I don't know how much it weighs but thinking around 70-80kgs.

It's hard to find up to date info on Jeep bars on the ARB website. Have seen a few white colour coded ARB bars in the last few weeks and reckon they look good.

Cheers, Macca.

Was there much cutting involved?

Well you have to cut the bottom half of the bumper off, but you do with most bars

Hi Macca, that looks great. I have been in contact with a few ARB dealers here in WA and they don't supply that bar just yet. I think it will look nice colour coded on the white!
