Ok joeblows. I understand what ur trying to say and I agree it's definately not the nicest lookin bar. But I don't give a shit as it was free and still does the job. What other bar have u seen That can keep stock in?

Doesnt look THAT bad. Wont have to worry about decreased airflow into the grill.

For free, thats a thumbs up.

From the photos you have posted it actually looks like it was designed for a Jimny, everything just seems to line up. Personally I'm not a fan of this style of bar but others are and for a free bar it's come up really well.

How much work was required to make it bolt up? Any pics of the mounting arrangement you came up with?

- Tim.

The angles line up well, not everyone is a fan and for free I don't care haha When I get home this afternoon I will take some pics of the side on angle and the brackets I welded up..

Its not my first choice for a bar

But as you said its free and it does look like it was made for it, especially side on.

Good work
