Come tax time I will be buying a steel winch bar for my GQ, and after going into the ARB here in Traralgon and hearing that they want $1600 for their winch bar, I've decided I'll get something a little different.
Currently looking at the Millweld commercial bar, $1250 is still pretty dear but it's much better than what ARB are asking for and in my opinion it looks a lot better.
Are there any other winch bars that you would recommend?

Cheers, Chris.

Second hand on ebay they come up all the time.

Brand New? Go the Milweld, best value and best looking bar on the market.

Just make sure its ADR Approved or you may find you will have no insurance.

you should only get in trouble with ADRs on a GU with airbags. on a GQ it would be considered a Bumper Bar ;)

Nice bar Mr. Big! Freight would probably kill it for me though. Lookin like the Millweld bar is the way to go.how hard would it be to add a hi lift having point? Or perhaps see if Millweld will do it for me
