Just a head up:
Many will perhaps be unaware of the recent discussions down-under regarding the design deficiency of the bar mounts. They are open at the top and water gets trapped within. Rust is consequently becoming a potential problem. Bit of a no-brainer really.
If you have an ARB bar check it out. You may be unpleasantly surprised, especially if you live in cold climes where they salt the roads.
ARB is changing its design as of today to include a weep hole to allow water to escape. Existing customers are advised to do this: (drill a hole)
and to follow it up with some sealing of the exposed steel with fisholene or similar.
