Just finished taking kaymar bar off and reinstating the factory bumper. Not as hard as I expected for a one person job. Hardest bit was loosening some of the nuts in very awkward spots. Getting spanners and sockets in there was tricky but eventually I won. With the bar off, I realized how rigid the kaymar bars actually are. Very very solid units. I'd hate to rear end someone wearing one.

That's what I need drew but they're so dear haha. Would make changing wheels a lot easier.

Why you taking it off?
I've got a bunch of the Ryobi tools with the same battery. Was in Bunnings a few weeks ago and they had the impact wrench on sale without the battery for $99.....too tempting, and it truly has become the most used tool I have.

Damn wish I'd have known because I have a ryobi battery and charger!

Got one mate. But was useless, since most of the nuts were in very tight spots, some JUST had enough room for a deep socket and wrench.

Just found it at Bunnings for $129, I'll stop in tomorrow and get one. Great tool to have and one I've wanted for a while now.
What are you doing with the kaymar bar Hodge ?
The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
Admired the pin striping on the driver door. Shyte.
