Show me your brush bar set up

[GAD]

Hi all , after a trip to Maytown and then onto Laura a couple of weekends ago . Got through to Laura but did a bit damage, little dent in sump , busted the side steps and a few dents and scratches . Well Bash plates are a necessity for the next trip and brush bars a must . Problem is how are the brush bars mounted to the chassis , I had a set on my old Triton and they were brackets that sort of hung a bit low and with how this Navara is like low as a fourby even 2" higher than stock they are low . I've heard of mounts weld to the chassis is this a good idea to weld to the chassis . So I would like to see some picks of your brush bars and in particular how they mount for some ideas .

have seen some that come off the side steps/rock sliders then up to the bullbar

I've got slider/ steps coming from Scotty Bobcat soon, and will try to snap pix of the old steps coming off and new ones on.

Had hoped to have them come all the way from bull bar to tray mounting point, incorporating steps and sliders in one . Just would like to see how some have mounted the braces back to the chassis from the bar and does it impede the bash plates and how they mount . Just to help me decide how or which is better .ARB couldn't show me how they mounted theirs but I like their bash plates . A photo I can see rather than trying to visualize from a description.

Ta Carro , do they mount back to the body or chassis ?

Just ordered a set from TJM . Had previously rung them and they said not for a King cab , but after the other company changed their quote up 250 bucks to 1650 fitted , I went back to ARB who said they don't do them for king cabs , dual cab and single cab they will do but not a king cab . So down the road to TJM and one fellow said no , but another fellow said they did checked their computer and found the first bloke was looking at an old listing somehow . So booked in with deposit paid . Now to wait for the 8th Dec .

Good to hear your all sorted.Hope you will throw up a few piccys

Well I am glad I rang up TJM to confirm my side bars and steps ." We haven't got them in yet Let me check where they are " . A few minutes go by and " I am sorry their not here and we don't make them to fit a extra cab , so sorry ." . So I went in to express my displeasure of being stuffed around having organized the time to have them fitted and left a deposit and no follow up so I would have turned up 7am and been told that , you probably would have heard the venting from Perth . Look you can sugar coat it as much as you want it was bad service and lack of consideration .
So after doing some ringing and talking to fabricators I got on to J N J Customs who did a great job and got it done asap .
Thanks Josh .
