[fridgie]

Looks great Fridgie

How much money do you reckon this site is responsible for?

So far this site has cost me over 10G since august would hate to think of what the combined member total would be

Every penny absolutely worth it!!

[kwyjibo]

BRENDAN?!?! its not fair! don't make me come down there! haha

[fridgie]

Who owns that little short one Joel

[kwyjibo]

Thems fightin words

[helicoptercow]

are you guys both running the same combination? would have thought fridgies bar would weight him down more then kyles

[Homer]

Thems fightin words

just kiddin' mate ...is there really much difference in height?

[kwyjibo]

lol its all good

we have the exact same kit, but his is tuned stiffer in anticipation of the bar... which probably only dropped it 5mm the lucky bum, far as i know mine is standard comfort setup. There is about 30-35mm difference between us at the front, but my rear is higher.. JUST, at least thats something right? lol

In in the end they both have the same articulation

[fridgie]

Measured centre if wheel to flare, mine was 20-30mm higher than kyles

As far as I know both running same combo BUT I did get ultimate to make allowances for the bar

[ultimate]

Kyle's has just had more time to settle....and more punishment I expect yours to drop a little bit more fridgie and than you will both be pretty close. I think your strut does have an extra collar though to account for a heavier bar.

[kwyjibo]

ya so its not much dif really, plus other things to consider like settling in... we put a spirit level across the wheels and his was almost 10mm higher (i got 35 pound, fridgie reckons 44 in his) not that it makes a diff in lift measurement, but it adds up mine are pretty worn and his at's are doing well for what they've been through lol

mine still looks better, i think the bash plates need a respray they're fading! plus a couple of tiny scratches

[dan40d]

Looks awsome fridgie, love the sahara bars

[ultimate]

tiny scratches

Looks good Fridgie,

Another one in the Sahara bar club

Who owns that little short one Joel

i know the Xrox has the best approach angle in class, and it is shorter front to back, but it doesn't put that ARB bar to shame.

[Homer]

It's the inches that make the difference though mate

No, the Sahara has good clearance too and looks good

I just saw Kyle in that little short bog hole last time we were out and I don't think another bar would have let his wheels touch the exit bank to climb out.

And the Xrox is about $400 cheaper....and while maybe doesn't look better...looks waaaay tuffer Just can't see it against the dark car as well in that pic.

[Joe]

Approach angle will drop once the standard ARB guards are installed under the corners. Got rid of mine for that reason

[reeldreamer]

Approach angle will drop once the standard ARB guards are installed under the corners. Got rid of mine for that reason

Still better then standard though....

[al coholic]

Perhaps Fridgie will be man enough NOT to put those crappy ARB corner gaurds on???? I know others arent up to it!!!

Looks great Fridgie.......top work.........


Sooooo...................whats next on the list then????

[helicoptercow]

he's got all the big ticket items now hasn't he? other then canopy if he's going down that path...

[jop]

I'm not sure xrox has the best entry angle, didnt seem much different on the weekend up against that rock and in a certain sandy rut.


Looks great fridgie, always thought yours was missing something - now daisy is legit

[helicoptercow]

the downside to an xrox bar if you land on it...

when my wife cleaned up a pulsar (rear left with her front right) in the ARB Deluxe bar equipped MK Triton it did push the bar back onto the mudguard and busted the headlight etc. but the bonnet was OK.

pulsar had to be towed. Hence why i just ordered another for the ML without thinking too hard about it.

i also like the look of the ARB, especially the Sahara, but can't justify the much more money for what provides less protection (it looks good though Fridgie )

it is one of the reasons why i was dissapointed in its performance at Lithgow but i think hitting it up from the bottom on the wing is not what it is made for.
