Nudge bars, Bull bars

Anyone recommend a GOOD set of bull bars for 1990 T25, water cooled.

Chrome would be nice, have others aquired? or used from different vehicles. I saw one with the bars and Spare wheel mounted on front. It looked Ok and easy to keep maintenance of spare wheel...

Not a lot of them around really. Your best bet is to put an advert in 'Classifieds' - 'Wanted' & see what turns up.

Thanx guys for info...i wuz cruzin thru the forum on keepin warm and came accross Jed the Spread freeweb.com site, its fab, really enjoyed reading about his escapades, but I digress. One of the vans on jis pics had either chrome or stainless bars. They are most likely off a different beast & wuz wonderin if anyone out there knows which come closest to fitting the T25..stainlees is the way to go, i reckon for longevity.

Kev...not the rev

Stainless may not rust, but it does not have the tensile strength of mild steel.
That's why real landrovers have painted mild steel ones, and poncy urban 4x4s and Japanese imports have shiny stainless ones, and why only DeLoreans were ever made of it.
