It says 20kg/44ib for the nudge bar in the vx frontera manual but that seems light for a steel bullbar but almost to light for the foam version but it doesnt state which :roll:

It prob is the steel version then.I know when i took my bumper off last week it wasnt majorly heavy even the foam nudge bar on it.Quite capable of lifting it via 1 person altho holding it in situ and fitting the bolts i wish i had 3 hands!

Scary things i noticed tho was the sidesteps on the LWB are 29kg compared to 19kg of the swb! :shock:
