Fitted up my Ironman load helper springs today. Put my quad bike in the back afterwards. Springs help alot. Adjusted them for lighter loads. Stiffens up the rear end very nicely.

Yeh I have them too it makes the biggest difference in the rear and its nicer to drive into corners

 

[Cobez]

Most definantly agree. Definantly noticed the cornering is alot tighter. As long as you set them properley they arent teeth crackers like alot of people think.

 

[Malicious]

Yeah and that dog looks no good either will have to take him with the rear step

Lol old mate

 

[Cobez]

"Her" hahahaha. Even she loves the rear step. Nearly licked the powder coat off it lol.

Just wanted to show how good these ARB rear bars are made. With a factory Nissan towbar, you CANNOT fit a 33" spare tyre underneath, but with these, it fits nice and snug.

You just have to manouvere the tyre as you wind the chain up so it doesnt get caught on the diff cover, which isnt hard at all. And the ARB rear bars are good to tow 2300 kilos. Win win!

The bar looks great Cobez,and a bargain as well.
Would it have more or less ground clearance than the stock STX bar?

 

[Cobez]

About two inches more and about fifteen billion times better looking than that ugly chrome step.

 

[Cobez]

Well my lightbar and loom was lost in transit. Thank god i opted for tracking + insurance. The bloke is waiting to hear back from Auspost then as soon as they confirm he is sending me another one at no cost. Lucky i researched the blokes store before buying so im not $$$'s down.

Going to order a turbo timer too. Im really anal about looking after my turbo and engine and always let my engine idle after long hard drives so it cant hurt to whack one in. Just the plug and play with the factory insert for the console.

 

[Cobez]

And while im waiting for my lightbar, i hooked my rocker switch up ready to go. A bit of manouvering and it fits nice.

 

[jason-navara]

niceeeee

 

[Cobez]

Mate, for an Egay rocker switch, the connections in the back are well put together and it fits like a dream. Was only $15 and free delivery. Comes with wiring diagram for it too.

And he can put whatever you want on it (lettering) with whatever coloured light.

Part of the chrome sports bar. Hand sanded, getting prepped and ready for painting early tomorrow.

Using half gloss wheel paint. Cheaper than powdercoating it, but better than conventional paints used for calipers etc (high temp). Just going straight black. I really dislike chrome anything to be honest. Even my Zippo lighter is matte black lol

 

[Cobez]

Bar painted and fitted.

 

[Nakkers]

Nice looking good, I got the TJM rear Bar though better departure angles than the ARB.

 

[Cobez]

And both the ARB and TJM bars are both a billion times better looking than those hideous Ironman rear bars. Thanks mate!

 

[Cobez]

Lightbar, turbo timer and body lift arrived today. Busy weekend for me
