Cray most of these are custom made or they are ones from auto accessorie places. just find one close to the hight you want. then go and get a little bit of tube from a metal suplier just big enough for the bar to slide into. weld them onto the bottom of ya car. drill a couple of holes in both sides and put bolts in them

there's a good chance that a bullbar/4wd specialist will make one up for you. i went looking for the same thing, and was met with Mucho Costalottus, the owner of the establishment. couple of hundred for each bar, front and back. i opted to spend my cash on go fast stuff :D

Yes its called a nudge bar...
My Son had one made by an aluminium fabricator shop for His Baja.. also a large one at the rear... You can get whatever shape and size of tubing You want... they just weld a couple of lugs to go where the bumper brackets go, and just bolt them on...
Look nice too... Lee

Nudge bars or Buggy bars they're called. Maybe some of our buggy mates can point you in the right direction - I'm sure you can buy them straight out without having to fabricate your own.
