Bullbars for JK Wrangler

[stampy4x4]

Anyone know how many bullbars are out there yet for the JK apart from the Warn example?

[TassieMav]

There's a really good one out from ARB.

That's all the Australian Offerings. Millions available from the States though!

What's the approx price for a ARB bar? Looking for a bar for my JK Wrangler....

[odelay]

I had one fitted at time of purchase. I think it was around $1500ish fitted.
Looks very tidy and follows the lines of the Jeep well.
I would show you a picture of it but I havn't worked out how to attatch images yet.

i was suppose to have a ARB one fitted to mine last week but they were out of stock Oz wide :mad: .but when i was looking you had a choice of arb,aev,warn and a few others but only the arb one was airbag compatible and cheapest also was the best looking of the lot and is winch compatible for about $1500 fitted as the others were dearer and had to add bits to make a winch fit.

There was a Bestop one fitted one the front cover of the Jeep Action magazine. Was locally fitted in Perth.

You can get it with the chrome bar in black or deleted all together.

Can someone explain to me how you can pick up an ARB Front bar, identical to the ones sold in Australia, from the States for $960.00 US plus $200 Freight (so about $1,283.51AUS Delivered plus 10% GST so, say, $1,411 with Fog Lights and winch blanks etc etc).

Whilst ARB Australia are selling for $1,456 Aussie.

It's a rort! Should be significantly cheaper as it's made, designed locally!

in america it's sold through aftermarket suppliers chasing a sale so there is a price war within 4wd shops as in aus they sell them through a franchised store with a set price so that you will pay the same price in melb and bris no matter where you are fair trade for there franchise agreement it sucks i know:crazy:

1. GST credits for export.
2. AusTrade kickbacks.
3. Competition in US.
4. Comparative cost of imported bars in Aust.
But I agree it doesn't make sense (on the surface).

Just being told the new TJM Bullbar has no holes to fit the fogs lights. Yet when I ordered the bar it shows fog lights fitted.

Hi. The new ARB bullbar, rear bar and snorkel is out now. They even color coat it to your Jeeps color. Looking good.
