1st Gen ARB Bull Bar Front Bumper Pictures

They should, even though those look like the 240s, I bet it is tight for a winch control though.

 

Short answer: they fit in the mounting holes.

Long answer: because they are so wide they actually contact the vertical bumper supports when trying to aim them straight forward. You end up having to aim them to "cross beams" down the road. You would only wver see this effect if it was foggy or snowing alot at night.

And yes, very hard, if next to impossible, to fit a typical Warn winch controller. You could mount it inside the bumper, however, and relocate the plug in for the remote. Not easy though.

 

crazy to think there is a 20 percent mark up on these bumpers.

 

Profit isn't a dirty word.

A lot of people would happily pay for quality; I do.

 

Profit is what drives customer service.....20 percent isnt that high, if you consider other industries.

 

random question, but whats the biggest round light that can be fitted to these? i'm waiting for mine to show up but want to get some arb intensity 9" knock offs lol

 

@greenseaman is this suspension stock?

 

It's been a year since he was last on TW.
Here is his build thread. Might find the answer there.

Lens swapped the center pods from Yellow Combo to SAE Driving, should allow me to legally tap them into the high beam and use them on road when needed. Should help augment the headlights on wide open roads. The high beam on the HID projectors are kind of meh. Also the screws Diode Dynamics use strip way too easy, so there kind of like this forever now

 

the torq head ones on the back? the blue locktite they use is a bitch sometimes lol. i ended up buying like a 30pack of the bits so i always have a fresh one just incase.

 

Yup! They loctite them like they'll never be removed! Had to dremmel two of the screws into flatheads to get them off. Even the main mounting ones could be better. The screws on my previous pods were way stronger and never had an issue.

 

What’s the weight of these? Also we where is the clutch access?

 

Not sure what the weight is...probably on the ARB website. There is a small hole in the bottom of the bumper that you access the clutch with.

 

Love my ARB. Thought I posted pics of it but I guess not.

 

IIRC, weight is 90-95lbs.

 

Thank you.

I could only find shipping weights (150lbs) but no actual bumper weights on any ARB publications.

 

Someone on TW posted the weight several years ago and I recall being impressed with the weight of less than 100lbs because it looks like a lot of metal. It's designed very well..... there's an impressive YT video showing how the ARB bumper is made.... really cool.

 

Suspension set up?

 

2inch OME full kit. Went with the 881s in the front and new Dakars in the back, with nitro shocks front and back.

 

Rig looks really nice.
