Nudge bar

Postby Mikemuke » Sun May 29, 2022 7:40 pm

Hi ,I've got a 1997 Bighorn Plazir, spezial edition with air bags. I'm looking to put a nudge bar on it but apparently it might not work with the airbags ? Any information about it? The other thing is the front bumper it's different to any other bighorn/ trooper out there it's got a bulge on the bottom of it which makes it impossible to put most of the going nudge bars on. Any Ideas ? Thanks

A photo might help. Air bag equipped vehicles must use approved airbag compatible bull and nudge bars

Hi I just figured out that my 1997 bighorn 3.1 which is a ubs 69 but all the specs on the car is from ubs 73. This is an anniversary
Model from japan which even got the front end nudge bar mounts from the ubs 73 thats why the bumper is different. I love this car and just have to find a nudge bar from the later model which is very rare in nz to get accessories for. Or I might not bother. Thanks for the reply

Can you put up some pictures of your car? Does the build plate say ubs69 or 73? Later nudge bars should be available as a lot of the ubs73 bighorns broke their motors due to the issues with the 4jx1
