Brooksy's rear bar

[BoosBus]

Hi there,
Nice job on the bar!  Looks like it allows a good departure angle.
Could you please help me out with the LED's you've got pictured?  We've been looking for some for the other truck for some time, and like the slimline ones you've found!  Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers, Amber.

Brooksy,

Nice bar there.

Do you think you could make the "wings" or sides connect back to the chassis rails?  This will give it some strength when the Disco smacks the sides of a deep rut sideways hard.

I've got the Kaymar rear bumper bar and it's already bent both wings inwards when I've hit stuff sideways hard - and that happens a LOT in deep ruts.

Great job, I like it a lot!

My bars have brackets that attach to the wings & then bolt up to the mounts that the original tow bar connects to the chassis. I have a couple of bars that are being tested in the field at the moment & have taken some hard hits with minimal movement or distortion. The clearance that my bars give you have to be doing some serious work to hit them in the first place.
I have since made some other mods to my rear bars & other components but I haven't had time to post pics as well as the Gallery being out of action.

Just a note:

Can't get the photos of Brooksie's bar to come up on a variety of computers?

Cheers
