checked out arb products for Jk today

[double black offroad]

Went down to Kilsyth and looked at their unlimited their using for testing.
The front bar is awesome, it isnt the one pictured in 4x4 aus magazine as that is a us spec bar.
This does have the inserts for the fog lights and the rubber bumper over riders.

The rear bar is quiet basic and does greatly improve departure angle.
The sliders im a little dissapointed with as they cant be like the ones for the tj as the JK is different.
I saw the OME suspension set up in the car, it isnt finalised as of yet, they are conservatively saying around 2 inches, so they will be able to clear 35's!
There are no plans for sway bar disconnects.

Overall, quite impressed, I think the stuff being locally developed will make for a better riding vehicle than the stuff out of the US.

Regards,

Bill

cool. I dont suppose they gave you any idea of when they are hoping to release them?

Does the front bar just have the single hoop in the middle, or the two outer hoops as on the TJ bar?

[Devilish]

did they say when we could see pictures of the AUS spec bar??

Looking forward to seeing it and thank you for the heads up

bar does not have the hoops like the tj, very similar to the KJ bar.
Bars are available end of August, springs are available now to order, shocks are still 4-6 weeks away.
