In this video I take you through my installation of an ARB Summit bar. Disclaimer - This is not a how to, this is simply me sharing with you how I installed mine
this is really impressive. Thanks to show how important work it is I though it was just a removal part, to a replacing with an other one Never imagined we would have to go though the cuttings like you did. I'm very impressive from the taking off of all the parts, and the impossibility to put things back later Thx for the video.
Well done on your installation. Glad I paid to have mine fitted. Ended up going with the piak bar and happy with it but one of the fog lights has water in it already after the first creek crossing.
Cheers mate! Got myself a MR 22 coming. The bull bar is $2700 + fogs and install. Install is almost $900. Anyway I've managed to get a new bar for $1500 brand new (old stock) Thinking of installing myself. It's blue and I'm getting a black car could look interesting haha.
Pretty sure you will risk warranty issues with Mitsubishi if you instal it yourself, if you wish to keep the 10yr warranty(for any issue involving that area like windscreen wipes, indicator lights, maybefront airbags etc)If you use ARB or Mitsubishi installers pretty sure you keep your 10yr instead of the 5year. Maybe look into it.
@@mrtriton5405 not a fan of drilling into the chassis. Plus not a fan of bars that require cutting the guard, but that’s a personal preference. Went with the Rockarmour GT loop bar - have you heard much about it? I do enjoy your vids mate.
I’m new to the channel and just subscribed. I have an MR Triton and looking for a bull bat and winch. Did you have to upgrade your suspension after the bull bar install? Great work on the vlogs.. 👍👍👍
Thanks mate, nah there's no requirement to upgrade the suspension however with just the bar alone I lost at least 15mm of clearance 👍 I am planning on lifting it anyway.
Another great video. Just wanted to ask if by any chance you weighed the bar before you installed it? I'm struggling to find any info about how much these things weigh...
Hey mate how'd you get the accessories for the bullbar? Previous owner hit a few roos and broke the plastic bits below the hoops and the honeycomb grill and I've been looking for replacements, any idea where I'd find them?
Mate, did you notice a huge difference after you installed that bar on the steering side of things? I'm getting a summit bar installed soon on stock suspension , will eventually upgrade the suspension when I get the chance.
No difference in terms of steering. For me the main concern was the suspension sag (only minor). That'll be resolved when I do my lift later down the track
@@mrtriton5405 yeah cheers mate, you know what ARB is like trying to sell you kits right away, Il leave the suspension to last once I get it kitted out
Hey mate, do you think the Piak Elite bars are any good? I think that's the only one slim enough to fit in my garage. I haven't got much room to play with 🙄
Hey! Yeah mate I like the Piaks for looks. They are pretty well build also. Only reason I didn't get one is they're not quite as good as the ARB and TJM ones and cost nearly the same amount.
@@mrtriton5405 I think I have no choice as I went to ARB today and looked at the summit bar and its going to be tight to get it into the garage. The Piak Elite looks alot slimmer so I am going to have to go with that. As long as it offers some decent protection I will be happy

Nice video, we are looking at a dual cab and keep telling the wife we don't need a top of the line Dualcabs, if putting aftermarket accessories on.
Much praise to you for doing this.. I know i wouldn't have the patience for it for a start.
As always another great vid :)
They definitely are a big job haha
Well done on your installation. Glad I paid to have mine fitted. Ended up going with the piak bar and happy with it but one of the fog lights has water in it already after the first creek crossing.
Thanks mate! Yeah part of the reason I went ARB was the small build quality benefits like that 👍
got my 2021 triton coming in at the end of this month finally. so excited for this journey haha
Welcome to the family! You'll love it 👍
Hello excited on the suspension lift video to come!
Cheers mate!

Shouldn't cost much to get it powder coated 👍

Great job, looked pretty technical!
Cool video mate.
Best advertisement I have seen to not buy an ARB bullbar.
Care to elaborate?

@@BI64L Cheers mate, never looked much into that brand. Agree this bar was an absolute dog to install!
Brilliant Video Mate!
Nice job !! Looks great !!

@@mrtriton5405 thanks heaps 👍
Definitely upgrade the suspension. They ride, handle and look like complete garbage with the stock suspension and 80kg of steel hanging off the front.
Very good 👍🏽
Great vid mate, shame the washer bottle is half the size haha
Another great video. Just wanted to ask if by any chance you weighed the bar before you installed it?
I'm struggling to find any info about how much these things weigh...
Thanks mate 👍 I think including the brackets around 80kg
You’re missing out on a few key features with that model triton. Super select 2 and diff lock. Totally different truck if you don’t have these.
Yeah I've heard they're great features!
GLS and above models also have 320mm front disc brakes. All other models have 294mm.
Hello sir! After installation of the bullbar, did the front end drop a lil bit? Perhaps an inch drop due to bullbar weight?
Hey mate, yeah you lose about an inch of ride height up front
Nice work
Good job mate!!
The washer bottle is supplied with the Arb bull bar or you bought it separately?
Cheers mate 👍 comes with the bar 😎
Great!! 😉
Such a mission

@racer8115 Hey mate, I think you'd have to go direct to ARB themselves 👍

@@mrtriton5405 you probably already onto it , what's ya thoughts on the Fulcrum 2" lift ?
Nice video! I own a triton in thailand. Unfortunately ARB bar does not fit to that version. Any clue what is the difference between the „same“ cars?
Honestly that's the first time I've heard of that, the Tritons in Australia are made in Thailand 🤔
@@mrtriton5405 that is really interesting! ARB does not deliver bull bars with the argument that these are not fitting our local triton model…
nice wens the 33s on the triton? first btw

How does the stone guard work if it has bloody great holes in it?
It's a trade off between protection and airflow 👌 not the best protection though!
Yeah , ill get it done by a pro , i dont like cutting stuff , i will probably get the bull bar and snorkel done at the same time.
Yeah, same here. I'll give most things a go, but this looks like a recipie for disaster! And drilling that hole for a snorkle?! no way!
Anyone know if a MR ARB bull bar will fit on a MN Triton???
Does your bullbar wobble much?
Only a little bit 👍
hi mate is there any way to contact you via email to ask questions?
Sure mate, mrtritonglx@gmail.com
Googling isn't research.
You need to google the definition of research mate 🤣
