=premo= Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 (edited) i have my front bar cable tied on. when i pull up to parking blocks etc the front bar only just touches but when i revurse it catches and pulls off. the cable ties break easily so no damage to the bar or my car. (hafta carry a park with me thow). thinking bout adjusting the front a lil higher anyway, cuz my tyres are rubbing fair bad.

R32_Matt Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 yeah i parked at the club and it was about the same height from the gutter as your car. i reversed back and then BANG!! Got out and half my front bar was ripped off. Didnt scrape when i parked or reversed just caught on the back edge when i moved back. Didnt make any noise till the bar snapped!

MIVEC Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I've often wondered if anyone's ever bolted on a shaped peice of metal that goes under the front bar to stop this from happening all the time.
