    Ok....Just checked out Rossco's bar and rang Gary and I am happy to announce my bull bar sux!!!

    From the front plate to the AC condenser is 270mm.

    Mine looks like an ARB Delux Bar as above but it is a winch bar, not sure whats going on there.




    Rosscos is the ARB delux winch bar as shown below and is 315mm from plate to AC. Loads more room and will fit the highmount no probs!

    And Gary's is the ARB Commercial bar which is a massive 400mm clearance!!!

    If anyone finds an ARB Deluxe winch bar for sale please let me know...lol...Or swap for my awesome one!!!!

    Yeah think I mentioned to you once before that I thought your looked a little odd mate and was not sure if it was a delux bar or not?? Not sure even if it is a winch bar to be honest.

    You are right the delux bar is the one Jonny has posted and the commercial bar has a bigger nose again and is the bar listed for the high mount.

    Yours would be perfect for someone wanting to fit a HiMount without a front mount intercooler and the snuggest fit possible for the tightest approach angle.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I just keep hearing excuses! Why not fit everything then built a custom tube bar around it! I'd offer to help but I can't weld I've heard
    Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.
    Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both.
    For a wounded man shall say to his assailant,
    'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, You are forgiven.'
    Such is the rule of honour.

    It's factory winch though which is strange.

    Yeah the approach angle is great, really great bar Johnathon...lol

    Looking at rosscos deluxe winch bar he will prob need to take off the nissan badge for a snug fit of the highmount.

    My bar is 40mm shorter so you would have to hack into the grille a little bit so not sure he would be keen on that...
