Are you going to do a lot of 4wding and need the approach angles that the
Xrox provides or do you want more protection?

Cool. When we going driving then.
If its just typical Perth 4wdriving Xrox bar is not too necessary in my opinion.
We have more mud and sand tracks than hectic rock tracks
Tough call

Lets see those pictures! Plan on mounting any lights? I love the fact that there are 9 mounting points on that bad boy...
I plan to order one to ship to the U.S. later this year... Let us know how the install goes.

You should probably contact the manufacturer and see what they have to say about this situation...

tell the supplier to get onto the manufacturer as your on the Hilux forum where a lot of people are concerned ????? People power.....maybe tell the nissan driver to cough up. If you dont get any results atleast post the pictures up here as a warning to others.
Sorry to here about it anyway

Mate allot of people have the Xrox with no issues. Could be an installation issue
