Post subject:  Jimny ARB Bullbar mounts

I've spotted some 2nd hand ARB Bullbars for the Jimny going cheap but they don't come with mounts/brackets. I've been looking around for a while and can't find where to get them from. Does anyone know where I could get hold of these.

Also, how do I find out if they are airbag compatible?

Finally, due to the weight will I have to do something about the suspension? Its currently got stock suspension. I was thinking along the lines of coil spacers for the front, higers spacers for front, say 30mm on front, 15mm on rear.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

didnt i see your jimny for sale on gumtree? you keeping it now?

you coming on the big perth trip?

i had stock suspension with my bar, no probs, but over time i think they springs will sag.

im pretty sure all ARB bars are airbag compatible.

benz is right, there is a huge backlog. so mounting brackets may also be hard to come by

you might have to make your own. i think u will be pretty right with the springs, i didnt notice any sagging on mine but i got toughdog coils.

Cheers guys. Any ideas of someone in perth who could make up the mounts for me? And does anyone have the pattern for the mounts so they know what to make?

Cheers guys. Thats the one, 2001 Soft-top.

I'm still thinking of selling it as I've now got a GV and we don't need two cars, but then spotted these bars going cheap ($200) and got tempted. Worst case I still sell it and these add some value to the sale price.

joeblow, if you could tha would be awesome.

I just busted my ARB bar...my mounts might still be OK.

PM me and I will take a look if you are interested in. Might need info on exactly what I am looking for as the bar is in bits in my garage.

Also...where did you see the bars?

Also I have 20mm longer springs in the front of my rig as it did start to sage within a few months - it's nice and level now.

40mm rear
60mm front

Both TD coils and shocks.
