Hi
Does anyone know of a bracket or mounting system that will allow an arb bullbar to be fitted normaly to a bodylifted Jimny?
Can the bolts that atach the bullbar to the mounting kit be moved to reposition the bar without affecting the crumple zone and airbag compliance?
cheers

Re-drill the top two holes lower to suit you body lift. The bottom one drill once its all mounted up again.

Thanks Joeblow.
Redrilled the all three and put in a larger 1/2 inch bolt, as the origional bolts from the bottom of the bar (see first post) were stuffed.
the arb insilation ( old holes up top) left the bar a bit loose. these 3 new holes are spot on with almost no play.
previously courrigations have caused the bar to shift and damage the plastic flairs.

to lift the bar the 50 mill the following had to be removed from the bullbar mounting brackets (left) and the bottom of the bullbar (right)
in the top photo you can see where i cut across.

looks nice and tidy now, with a better fit than before.
