Winch bar, which ones if any will fit???

[Spaceballs]

Im wanting a winch bar for my patrol but am having trouble chasing up a second hand one and dont want to pay $1100 for a new one.... Is the any other model , such as 80 series or something?? You can get heaps of second hand ones of them but now many patrol ones!

thanks! Tim

Hi spaceballs, i'm in the same boat as you. Cant afford/justify $1100 for an ARB, and my missus would kill me if i spent $800 on a Cheezy bar (although they're a bl00dy nice bar).

I have a TJM lowmount bar off a Rodeo, and a steel high mount bar off a cruiser, so i think i'm just going to build mine from scratch. I'll start off with a inner and outer sleeve chassis mount (same as the ARB ones), then use the high mount bar's winch cradle, and then run twin HD tube-bar side sections.

It will probly end up costing me $200 tops all up including paint, plus i get to make it EXACTLY the way i want it.

PS. Do a search in the nissan forum for "tube bar" and you'll get some good ideas.

Suit high mount? I'm a tight@rse when it comes to barwork as i can make it myself. Just need to be motivated to do it...

low mounts at black burn, they must have a great account with them lol, still cheap for a brand spanker.

Yeah I might give Cheezy or blackburn nissan a go... thanks!
My welding skills are average so im better off just trying to find a cheap bar under $1000

blackburn are cheapest by far i bought my orig bar from there, then went to a cheezy bar when i did a body lift, how ever, they run out of stock quickly when they get them in
