I have a mate with an '04 Scooby Doo Forester that needs a towbar on it.

Can anyone suggest who would be the cheapest to buy a bar from?

Thanx
Paul

Is it sunspares at Yandina? Subaru wrecker.
Scorpian offroad if they are still around used to be in Capalaba and did a lot of Subaru stuff
Might be a couple of places to start.

There's one on their web page with a tow bar being wrecked.

City Towbar & Bullbar Centre are usually pretty competetive, they do mobile fitting too.

I've used the Stafford store before 3856 2922.

A mobile joint will come out for about $450 and put it on... Wired up and all.

I said it was for a mate that had a shop at the time, sorry he no longer has his shop. You get trade if you ask pretty much anywhere, wear a company shirt, have dirty hands and you are in. Its rare I pay retail.
