does anyone know if ARB do a rear steel bumper?

No ARB don't do a rear bar, they sell the Kaymar bars. Kaymar generally make really good stuff but for some reason on the 120 Prado they didn't do a very good job IMO.

If you were on this side of the world I would suggest one of mine http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread...-Wheel-Carrier

I am going to have a crack at making one for myself soon, as I cannot afford one of AJ's top quality jobs.

I've had an Ironman steel rear bumper / step/ wheel carrier / dual jerry can holder on the back om my 120 for about 6 years now. At the time they were the only "off the shelf" bumpers available. Not too pretty to look at however very functional and apart from being a right bi#%h to fit! have not had any problems.

still looking for someone to take my cash
can't believe it's so hard to buy a 120 rear bar

any thoughts on the 'Kaymar' or 'Raslar' rear steel bars?

cheers

Regards the Raslarr, have a look here.

Kaymar make really good stuff but for some reason their 120 bar just doesn't finish up very well.




As you can see they don't line up with the body work very well at all.

I really don't know, I am not even sure I know where to start looking as far as exporting them goes, I will have a hunt around and see what I can work out.
