Post by FISH_Stalker » Fri Mar 10, 2006 7:23 pm

G'day. Im up for a new car soon, and im cosidering an L series. This is the bull bar that i have on my MY wagon at the moment and im wondering if it can be put on an L wagon with outout any mods. Not sure in the make of the bar, but have seen a few of them around.

As far as I know the L's are a bit wider, meaning with a few mods you can put an L bar on an MY but not the other way round.

Feel free to correct me if I'm mis-informed.

Sorry Joel, that's a big negative there. The bars are completely different.

doubtfull, but on some bullbars, provided they a physically wide enough, you may be able to fabricate some adaptors (or possible refabricate the mounts themselves) to fit an L series.

with decent L series bullbars being harder to find than MY ones, it may well be worthwhile just having a look and see if it is possible.

i have fitted a bar that was going on a brumby to my l.i had to cut the bits that run back along the guards shorter.i also had to trim the inside of the bar that runs back along the guards and fabricate new mounts[angle and flat steel].all this was done with basic tools.looking at your bar the area i would be checking is the tube that runs round the corner for clearance, mine is close but doesn't touch.
