Hi guys,
Discovered a crack in the right hand mount point of the factory steel bull bar on the GU7 2010 patrol during the pre-trip prep, so thought I'd better get it sorted. Didn't want the thing to fall off along the Gibb River road!
Went to a local boat fabricator who helped me out at short notice. They repaired the faulty crack and welded and extra bit of rail on both sides for some extra strength. Even whacked on a bit of paint to make it all clean after the weld. Bullbar survived the trip and a lot of corrugations and bumps, so job well done!
Cheers,
Nick
