Thnx for the update jimmyb, is there any info provided on whether a suspension upgrade is required for the front to accomodate the weight of the steel bar with or without winch?

Another good looking bar from ARB. A shame it took them so long considering they get other makes and models before they're even released.

Hi Scarps, there's certainly no requirement to update the suspension when installing a bar. In fact, we generally recommend that all planned accessorises are fitted to a vehicle before deciding on a suitable suspension upgrade.

Cheers, Sam.

Yep, like most of our bars, the lower section of the OE bumper is cut to match the profile of the bar.

Cheers, Sam.
