Here is one that Sandy Rut knocked up for me. Based on the Fat bar, but made to be a little lighter.

Image

IT has 3mm plate welded over the support brace (on top of the bar - triangle sections). These add strength and give you something to stand on to opperate when you are a short arse like me!

This is a tube bar designed and built by Dave at ACF Mt Evelyn Vic, on a production class car. It's been tested at Engel rnd 2 Cooma and it's all good.
The hoop over the winch can be totally customised to the customers requirements incuding 'wings' to protect the indicators...........

I don't have a GQ, I have an MQ but...

Here is a few pics of the front bar on it, also for PTO winch. A lot of these pics of bars posted so far look very similar so mine is just to give you some ideas on something a little different. :)

I am considering putting front blinkers in the bar, triangular section. Thinking grate it over and incorporate some LED blinkers into it. May also add a second fairlead down lower so I can run the PTO either way. Bar was built 6 months after winch cage so that is why they don't match 100%. :roll:

Thanks, this is photo of bar on my first GQ, it was strong but heavy and too big so went for a lighter but still strong design second time around.
Had a snatch strop break and come back at me one day and it broke my spotlights so now I put mesh on the bars.

I heard that ACF closed down, since being kicked out of Adrians "Rangie Automotive" due to a lot of unhappy, patient customers
That bar looks avarage anyway alot better bars on the market. Ontrack make a strong practical "winch challenge" bar

Dwanye your bar looks greats and offers the best of both worlds

i think that the bar looks great, im so sick of every single person with a FAT or CHEEZY front bar, i would much prefer this over something every other person has

any way this is my bar its by PATROLDOCTA, tuff as Sh!t, and designed to be able to take a hit without capsizing
