the gv needed a bar so i purchased a Nissan gu patrol bar or something like that anyway for $200 that's when the fun started! i didn't really take enough photos of the cutting and welding and modifications I've done but you can see from the photos the difference now! i'm not sure if i need to take more out of the middle though.

Post subject:  Re: gv bullbar

did you cut the centre of the main hoop and shorten it there?

thats pretty well done and some good thinking, thats come out better than most commercial GV bars

Post subject:  Re: gv bullbar

yeah originally the middle bar came across right through the middle of the lights so i took majority of the length out through there, i also shortened it up bottom to top because it had a gay bit down the bottom which hung to low so i completely changed that bit, the next mod to it will be fitting a winch :D and then its time for the sierra to get a front bar which is just going to be 3 or 4 mm plate in the middle and 2 or something on the wings and just bend it up,

a new rear bar on the GV would be interesting, are you going to wire the tail lights up and have no lights in the rear bar??
