Title: Opposite Lock Bull Bars
Post by: Swogjb on January 08, 2015, 07:45:13 PM

G'day Swaggers,

I'm after some info on Opposite Lock Bull Bars.
I've always been ARB but I really like the look of their new 63mm tube bar.

Are they good quality?
Back up service etc etc?

We don't have any Opposite Lock stores down my way, so I would be buying online out of Adelaide.

I'm looking at a black bar with 63mm tube + 63mm side rails and steps.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

 :cheers:
Glenn

There's some good feedback on them over on the newlandcruiser.net forums.

I've seen pics on the net, but I have never seen one in the flesh or heard much about them.

I don't like the small cross bar between the posts on the ARB bar for the 70 series.
So have started to look for different options.

Cheers guys

The external diameter of the cross bars is pretty irrelevant if they are are only paper thin.  Sometimes what you pay extra for, is not visible or obvious.

I know a couple of guys with them on their Amaroks, who are happy with them, but personally I would go with a TJM T13... built in "recovery points", and more aesthetically pleasing to my mind...
