ARB bullbar (phase 2) "The bends"

[airlaird]

For those who give a crap So very crucial to the look on a prerunner..I think we nailed the angles and bends. Obviously, too much bend in the bender and you will crimp the steel. I have a 2" front bar and 1.75 winglets. Mig welds and he is almost done. So far so good. More pic tomorrow.

Oh that's looking sharp!

I absolutely love the lines, I just wish the 'winglets' as you called them didn't interfere w/ the headlights.

What do you mean you will 'crimp' the steel? Assuming you're using a proper bender you should be able to bend 180* w/o 'crimping'.

Looks great!

Looks nice
I would like to do one similar except I would like the middel tube to follow the lines of the grill so that if I am standing infront of the truck I can not see the chrome. The winglets are tough because I would like them to follow the lines between the lights but that does put the support very low. Still struggling with that.

That looks flippin sweet. Good work!

Very nice. I've been wondering if, what, when and how I could do the same to mine. Keep the pics coming.

Thanks guys! Actually I LOWERED the bar in front so I CAN see the chrome...I still like bling ). I know the winglets block some of the lights. I expected that and I don't really care )) My 4" lights in the bar outshine my headlights...anyway and then there's the Hella's.

nice. any thoughts on removing the so called recovery points and adding some real ones?

 

[airlaird]

I thought about different recovery points...but I'm wearing the fab guy out...so probably not.
