This range of computer designed Bull Bars feature options not seen in other bars and is equally at home in town or in the bush.

 

The Systems Bull Bar is far more than just a simple protection device for you and your vehicle, it is a purpose built 4WD accessory designed for strength, functionality and stylish good looks
for the modern vehicle.


 
Systems Bull Bar

It provides the mounting place for lights, winches and aerials, with safe reinforced recovery points necessary when additional assistance is required. The bar has been designed to withstand incidents with wildlife, the terrain and other vehicles that would otherwise cause more expensive damage and the inconvenience and disappointment of a ruined holiday.

In particular the
Systems Bar's lightweight design improves your vehicle's ground clearance, approach angle and turning circle. There is no compromise in your vehicle's handling and performance.

Each bull bar is individually designed and manufactured to suit the model of vehicle and to compliment the original lines and body shape. All bars are finished in a high quality long lasting powdercoat or paint finish and can be colour coded to suit your vehicle.

A complete range of bull bars suitable for winch mounting is available, having the same superior design plus additional support and extra features for the serious off-roader. The computer aided design of the Systems Bar is the key to all of the characteristic benefits of the bar - safety, good looks, strength, light weight, rigidity, impact resistance, ground clearance and vehicle protection.

The one piece folded and welded design provides lightweight structural strength and rigidity quite superior to "bolt together bars", while the multiple axis chassis mounting system gives the bar its strength by mounting it to the chassis in all three directions and spreading the load. Bullbar image
Bullbar box section This type of engineering means reduced weight while maintaining the strength of the old style steel bars of a bygone era. The mounting system is much stronger than the "single flat plate" mounts common to low quality steel and most alloy bars.

Heavy duty recovery points are an integral part of the Systems Bar, this is only possible due to the inherent strength of steel construction, the multi directional mounting system and the one piece design. These recovery points are an essential part of safe, responsible 4WD driving and are absent in many steel and all alloy bars.

The tapered side returns and angled bumper sections improve ground clearance, approach angle and turning circles resulting in improved off-road performance as well as having the benefit of an attractive slimline design which further reduces weight.

A
Systems Bar
is lightweight, only adding approximately the same weight as a second battery and is only 10-15 kg heavier than an equivalent alloy bar. Since a 4WD weighs 1500 to 2200kg unladen, this additional weight is insignificant.

In addition to the features already stated, the Systems Bar is supplied with

  • fully formed light and aerial mounts, (antivibration and suited to auto-tune HF aerials),
  • hi-lifting jack points braced to the chassis and upright and
  • can be customised at the point of manufacture to suit your special needs.
