Took the old bar down to Bill Buckles yesterday and got the right one - and a surprise. You see the air-bag compatible bar is a lot more complex than the bog standard one and hundreds of dollars more expensive. It also comes with pricey adaptors for the winch, bar adaptors and enough wiring harnesses to wrangle a herd of buffaloes. All of which means that what appeared to be a very reasonable price for the genuine bar, isn't exactly so.
Still, the Nihon engineers generally seem to know what they're doing and we look forward to a marvellous new addition to the troopy - just as soon as I sort out the multiple boxes of fascinating hardware.
But all of that's in the future. Today it's off to Dave and co at Trakka for a you-beauty flip-up roof bed thinggy. I wonder if there's a market for second-hand landcruiser roofs?
