Why don’t we have bull bars?

I searched for bullbars and found 2 threads on the I need... section with two guys chasing bullbars that got no replies.

Even the off road guru Hiace Hobo doesn’t seem to run one. I have the raised Cobra Springs on the way from NZ for my 2wd. Last week I paid and am now waiting for the first batch of Yokohama geo G015 to come in in the 215/70 R15 size which will give me only 14mm increase on my plated 205s. Those on my new black Sunraysias with the little suspension lift will go great with a bullbar. I really want to improve my approach angle and get rid of the plastic front bumper and not make it worse with a bullbar with those 2 stupid bars that come from underneath the standard front end.

Any reason I don’t see any even on the 4wd guys cars?

I like the naked look of the ones fitted to Delicas. Surely a guy that’s good with a gas axe and a welder could persuade one of those to fit. They seem to be easy to find.

Hi mate I'm also looking for a nudge bar for my 98 Super custom, if you find out any more info please do let me know

trying to work out why you would want to alter your approach angle with a 2wd?

Easier to steer around the bulls

Careful not to restrict any air inlets below the bumper if you fit them.

I tried unsuccessfully to get a bullbar when I first bought my Hiace. One supplier could source one that would fit in theory but the horizontal radiator prevents normal attachment. The supplier said I would need to find an engineer to design a new attachment method. It all seemed too difficult.

If anyone’s still looking, I came across this bumper replacement bullbar, not sure if they’re still available but it’s a start.
Presumably they’d fit SC’s

That bullbar looks cool Wimpy_al - wish I lived in Australia

Wouldn't it be a 'roo bar for Aussie?
