Who wants an after market bumper / bar?

[DaneJa]

Having this built by Arc-Rite out of Del Rio Texas. May have them add fender bar supports attaching to side steps.

Looks nice, and nice to add the Baja Designs lights. Have they tested the factory off-road lights for shadowing? Those uprights look rather close to the light path. May just be the photo angles.

That looks pretty good. I think I'm going to leave my IG with WBIFab.com in Brenham and let them design a bar similar to the Roo Bar but with a place to mount a light bar. Given the cost to get a Roo Bar shipped over, it has to be a better option and if people like it, they can make some more.

This is the way

I saw that on their Grenadier when I picked up my Buzz sliders, but only as I was driving out of their lot and didn’t get to really look at it.

Looks good! Will it be available in stainless? And will you be doing hoops or an A bar for it?

How is that build coming along?

That looks nice, so far.

Rich from OK4WD said it's about 90 days out.

We are proud to be able to work with the best in the business to fast track products to market for fellow Grenadier owners. The prototype will be fitted to our GrenX development vehicle soon and we are keen for you all to check it out. It will be featured on our new youtube channel. https://youtube.com/@IneosGrenadierWorld?si=pm2FOY8Nt_N4JfTf

Please contact us if you would like to be notified on how and when to place an order as well as installation options.

Hey there, just checking in on progress - how's it going? I'm looking forward to seeing how it mounts on your test vehicle and am looking forward to making the purchase here in the States.

I have been checking the ARB and TJM websites every couple of months hoping for something like this.

The low volume in the market, along with the requirement to get them tested and approved with the airbag operation, was the main reason ARB, TJM and others have listed for not doing one.

We will get prototype in a couple of weeks

Yep, that would explain the slow progress so far for off-road bumpers. I hope North America pushes forward. Someone correct me but AFAIK there's no requirement for testing or approval here when bumpers are sold for off-road purposes. i.e. Nobody here stops you from building or selling or buying a nicely crafted piece of metal and bolting it to your rig. Now if you break the law of your region and drive where such equipment is not permitted on a road then that's on *you*.

Happy July 1st & 4th week!

Coming along.. has to be welded up, some finish work on the upright supports and powder coating.

As you are making it yourself you may wish to adjust the uprights so the cross bars sit a bit further out from the body.
This will allow a bit more depth for mounting driving lights so they don't hit the grill.

 

[GN4HIR]

Thanks Dave. I'm not doing it myself, having it done. I just write the check. The light bar I'm using is not deep, we are going to weld mounting tabs to the cross bar.

Looks great. Love the profile. Add a bullbar and rear bumper and open it up for online orders! Kidding not kidding.

 

[ethree]

Hold off on the AUS Bullard because ppl in the states have stated that bull bar interferes with the parking sensors .

I just shut them off. Wanted them off anyway—the installation just cinched the deal.

Just curious, does everyone that installs a bar have the from parking sensor issue?

It seems to be hit or miss and not continuous either
