    07 winch bullbar on 02?

    On a shoestring budget with minimal tools and even less knowledge. Found a winch bullbar for a reasonable amount from reasonable bloke who said the bullbar from the 07 will not fit my 2002 GU III. Would that be correct?

    Cheers

    Adam,

    I believe the bar itself will fit, but the gaps will all be wrong.....

    The later grill is deeper, necessitating a bigger cut-out in the bar itself to make the bars fit the new ones.

    If you don' t mind a bit if a gap, then go for it, but I think that you should be able to find the bar you are after quite easily.

    not yet, should I be looking at cradles first?

    was going at it one part at a time its a looooooong list

    1> Panhard rod - first step for nasty wobbles
    2> N.A.D.S.
    3> 2/3" lift kit (got 270000ks on the odo and no sag - she's pretty fit for an old girl)
    4> MUDDIES
    5>Winch compatible bull bar
    6> Winch
    7> Roof Rack

    After the panhard rod and N.A.D.S. its in no particular order of preference

    Also going to the local wreckers to see if I can see something worth salvaging

    Nads first, or at least put some gauges in so you can see whats happening

    Lift you do last so you can tailor spring weights to suit your load
