Bullbar on a 81 hliux

pretty sure all hilux solid axel bull bars will fit all the way from 1981 - 1997, as far as i know you should be fine, but note that the surfs and 4 runners are different as they are on a different chassis with the ifs.

the LN/RN 46/36 models are complete different to the rest. You will need to buy a bull bar for you 81 or have one built.thehanko wrote:pretty sure all hilux solid axel bull bars will fit all the way from 1981 - 1997, as far as i know you should be fine, but note that the surfs and 4 runners are different as they are on a different chassis with the ifs.

i had the same dilemma with my old truck and now my new one as well so i wanted a new arb winch bar and to get rid of the bottoms of the front guards
i ended up buying a bar off of a ifs hilux then modifying it to fit
i took 35 mm out of each side (rn 46 is narower )then welding the wings back on and taking the same amount out of the top tube as well.
then made some new mounts
old truck rn 46 chassis
new truck build
brand new bar
the next day
the day after that

Just another quick one then.. Is it the same scenario with the tray? It has a aluminium tradesman tray on it and wanted to put the OEM tray back on.. Proplem is cant find one from an 81 model.....
Thanks.
2wd trays are the same on the 79 -83 and the flares bolt off if u can some off a rusty tray then bolt them on to the 2wd tray
