Outer Limits 4x4 Board

just letting people know that Blackburn Nissan spare parts are selling genuine Nissan black powdercoated winchbars to suit GQ Nissan Patrol for $550 with free delivery they delivered it to my door a few hours after i payed for it, they look very good.

they quite often do fantastic deals down there.

speak to AJ in spares... you may be suprised what he comes up with.

Going to call him for a large order of oil and air filters soon... probably 100 of each

i bought one 3 years ago from cleveland nissan also $550 arb wanted $1100 or so

hi photos please

Do you reckon that he would deliver it to perth at an extra cost?

any pictures insane?

and do they deliver to sydney?

so i guess you dont want my cheezy bar cheers for the phone call insane . i will readvertise it now

sorry mate i lost your number on my phone, I will get the bar out and take a few pics of it and post them 2morrow nite allright.

anyone know if these are available anywhere in sydney or does this company ship to sydney?

i would have got the cheezy bar that the other bloke was selling they look heaps better and 100% stronger, you dont see the comp trucks running around with nissan bars on and i think that is for a reason

mmm I am with Grimbo on this. Cheezy bars may look better. But alot of the tube bars that are on the market arent stronger than ARB. They would have to be the strongest bar on the market. As well as some of the other designs. Yes they flex but they want flex as much as most tube designs. And I have seen both designs hit trees.
But tube bars appear to have less flex and stronger. But really it is more likely to be the case that they are less likly to hit the ground.

Fair comments for sure turps.

sickgq...You don't see comp trucks running around with the stocker bars because they need to be heavly modded to take a highmount, which is what all most all comp trucks run.

On style of bars IMHO it's horses for courses. I'm not saying ARB bars are no good, quite the opposite they're excellent, if they suit your purpose. But for a winch comp truck it's very hard to beat a cheezy "style" tube bar for a number of reasons, approach angle, strength in the cradle area, weight, access to the truck when trying to fix it, much easier to stand on and work on the truck. Yes an ARB bar might come up better after hitting a tree than a cheezy bar, I've seent his too and it wasn't pretty, but I wouldn't assume so with all tube bars.

nissan part number is F210034J54A

Thats about the going rate (trade) at most nissan dealerships for the GQ winch bullbar.

It's just most people don't relise how cheap genuine Nissan parts can be. I always check genuine prices before going aftermarket because most of the time genuine is cheaper.

Cheers Mick.

anyone got some pictures of this bar ?

here you go

pic won't work

i get my truck back 2morrow nite i just got the bar chopped and lifted and twin lockers fitted by Ontrack 4x4 so i wil take some pics of it on the car 2morrow when i get home, and post them.

Comp trucks only run tube bars for approach angles and weight reasons,the type of winch doesn't even come into it as you can fit a hi mount into low mount bars by cutting out grille.the only reason they run these bars is because they can afford to replace grille/lights /guards/bonnet after each outing.

Just did 80k service on my GU, these are the price Nissan wanted for parts
Swivel Hub Kit $241.20- Aftermarket kit (A/M)was $151 inc delivery
Oil Filter $31.65 A/M $19.51
Fuel Filter $63.30 A/M $19.46
Air Filter $33.40 A/M $17.67

Total saving to me was $177.64. All the parts were Japanese made

Going genuine certainly wasn't a cheaper option from my local Nissan dealer

Why roll your eyes, ARB make the Nissan bull bars and they make the Toyota bars

I was mainly refering to trade prices. There not trade prices by the looks of it. If you can get it at trade prices there usually the same price or close to the price of aftermarket.

Central coast 4wd wreckers wanted $750 for a secondhand turret and I paid $600 for a new genuine one so it's pays to shop around.

Cheers Mick.
