i've been keeping an eye half open for a nudge bar for my sierra as i really don't need the bull bar.
My question is there any reason why a coily one won't fit ?(add for sale)
I also see them on vitaras... i take it they don't? (or do they?)
Otherwiser anyone here in Sydney want to swap a Nudgeb ar for a Bull bar?

a coily bar will fit as leafy bars fit coilers. imho a nudge bar is pretty useless, it will decrase your approach angle significantly will provide little brush protection and is unlikely to survive a decent knock where a bullbar would. they are really just for bling looks

for someone who does little 4wd outside of holidays i got city tech in my mind. I like Sand dune 4wd'ing too so stock works well
I only want it incase i 'nudge' during a manouver like parking or something. In the event of a crash i don't think the bullbar will save much as i would be on a head on not slamming into a rear (i say this cause à always try to maintain the 3-4 second gap even if it means letting cars continuesly in front)
Taking the bull bar away i'm making my vehicle a little more pedestrian friendly (toch wood it never is put to the test)
That's why i steer away from things like lifts and fat rubber, i don't need it for what i'm doing... in fact my tyres are good quality road tires (Sumitomos all round) The grip is great and i don't slide around like i did before when i had duelers in the front. On the other hand other people slide around with the cheese cutes cause they weren't designed for high speeds but crawling... nothing wrong but everywhere i go everyday in Sydney is a huge sacrifise to gain a slight edge on roads that i don't really want to drive
Does any one have a nudge bar? Make you rig more capable... remove your bling... i need it
