gday,
ive just done a 2" body lift on the 99 lux now i wanna lift the bull bar to suit the body and increase approach angle........ and as im not so confident in my welds id rather get a shop to do it but thats proving to be a hard ask....
so i was wondering if you guys could shed some light on what is involved or know of any places in perth that does that kind of stuff.....
cheers,
hayden

They will even know where Willetton is

that's the only way to do it i had to do the same. stick ya head under the bar, there might be enough pipe sticken thru so all ya have 2 do is cut it with gas and lift. or do the right thing and make it big!!!!

I've been there before! (Lifting a bull bar for a 2" lift, not Willetton!) It isn't a difficult job for someone with even very basic fabrication and welding skills... cut, lift, stick some metal in the gap, weld! ;)

Having said that, I probably wouldn't have attempted a job like this myself a year ago!
