mate what sort of dollar are you chasing for that rear bar with the tow assembly mod aswell. i am interested in front too but probably only afford one at a time. also if you could do the quaterchop aswell how much woould i be lookin at. was that front bar custom fitted to the winch or would it accept others too i dont have winch atm but have been thinkin about one of them tigrez setups. if your not keen on posting prices publicaly any chance of pm'ing me your number? as i said i am keen on front and rear but depending on prices may have to get in two seperate hits. thanks mate

The front bar certainly looks "different". I kinda like it though. Well done for doing something different :armsup:
I see your GU has some panel damage too haha ;)
Bloody fat rear ends, that's why I cut mine into a dual cab :cool:

Great bar work mate. Very neat.

Out of interest, in the pics the tow hitch doesnt look centred in the middle any longer? is it still in the middle left to right? nice work lifting it up higher though, im forever bashing mine on shit.

The rear diff pumpkin on Patrols is actually not in the centre.
That, and the rear doors, which are not symetric either, make it look offset ;)

Is the rear bar built around the towbar or is the towbar built into the rear bar mate?
