Bullbar with winch cradle wanted 2.8 '91 mu

Postby tonkamu » Tue Aug 22, 2017 2:49 pm

Looking for something besides spending big on those new ones that will fit my Isuzu mu 2.8 1991.

Already have a 9500 runva winch on a custom cut out steel tubing with 4 mounts, 2 bolts each mount. Looks pretty ugly and my indicators are hanging by cable ties.

Is there a guy in Auckland who can fabricate something or any second hand ones around. Not wanting to spend 1000+ on an ARB etc.

cheers

tidyest way is a mcc bullbar but they are 1200. You would be hard pressed to get one made for less. Does your polytech do welding lessons?

you only need to do the course. The certs wont help unless you work in welding or want to take on jobs that require the cert
