The bull bar will be lighter than a normal bullbar as it keeps the original Grenadier steel bumper.
DaveB-
100 kg of payload gooone, right there. Am getting the side bars as well, there goes another 20. Oh and the winch, another 20.
It looks like it bolts through the existing bumper, with those plastic bungs covering the access holes to get a socket into, so that should be very easy.
Pack gin , it weighs less than beer!
There will inevitably be a small reduction in clearance, although arguably with the rock sliders you can belly over some obstacles which would mean an increase in ramp over in some situations. You wouldn’t need them on trails/unsealed roads, as an overlander IMHO they’re worthwhile only if you’re doing eroded technical trails or soft surfaces where the primary use is as a jacking point for recoveries.
Difficult choice for mine… that’s a lot of weight and to be clear that valance would be easily fixed.
In the final photo, what material is that edging below the door? Is that easily replaced?
It's a surprising amount of weight when you see it written down. They must be quite thick walled.
I have no idea ~ on later PT02s it looked like a heavy duty plastic very similar to the material in the bumpers. My only concern with re~attaching them is whether they will have JLR like plastic clips which when they break usually take some of the mounting tab with it and so end up being one use only unless you're handy with plastic welding tools.
Considering the profile: yes. But the ground clearance is the same.
Thanks for the excellent images. Helps affirm my decision. The payload trade-off is worth it for me and I tend to travel and camp in lightweight style anyway, and the extra weight is located nice and low. I had forgotten that they also provide a jacking point, bonus. Thanks again.
Please let’s reignite the “what constitutes ground clearance?” debate: it’s been at least a few weeks. Then we can finally get back on the flags issue
