ARBs Deluxe Bull Bar selection is the most extensive. Loaded with features aimed at making remote area travel safe, no other bumper offers the same degree of vehicle integration, protection or functionality.

Maintenance Tips
-
Regular Cleaning: Clean the ARB Front Summit Bull Bar with mild soap and water to prevent dirt, debris, and salt from accumulating. Use a soft cloth or sponge to avoid scratching the powder-coated finish. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the protective coating.
-
Inspect for Damage: After off-roading or driving through rough conditions, inspect the bull bar for any signs of damage such as dents, cracks, or rust. Pay special attention to the mounting brackets, as they are critical to keeping the bull bar securely attached to the vehicle.
-
Tighten Fasteners: The vibrations from off-road driving can cause the fasteners and bolts securing the bull bar to become loose. Periodically check and tighten all bolts and nuts around the mounting points to ensure the bull bar is firmly attached and secure.
-
Check for Corrosion: Even though the ARB Front Summit Bull Bar has a protective powder-coated finish, it’s essential to inspect it regularly for any signs of corrosion. Check for any exposed areas where the coating might have chipped or scratched, and touch up those areas with anti-rust paint to prevent further damage.
-
Lubricate Moving Parts: If your bull bar is equipped with auxiliary lights, winches, or other moving parts, make sure to lubricate them regularly. This will help keep everything operating smoothly and prevent corrosion and wear in the long term.
-
Inspect the Lights: If your ARB Front Summit Bull Bar has integrated or mounted lights, check them regularly for any cracks, water ingress, or damage. Ensure the wiring is intact and not exposed to potential damage. Replace any blown bulbs and clean the lenses to maintain optimal performance.
-
Check Alignment: Periodically check the alignment of the bull bar to ensure it hasn’t shifted or become misaligned due to rough driving. Misalignment could cause stress on the mounting points, potentially leading to premature wear or failure.
-
Apply Protective Coating: To further protect the powder-coated finish of your ARB bull bar, consider applying a layer of automotive wax or protective sealant. This will help prevent UV damage, repel water, and keep the surface looking like new.
-
Monitor for Leaks or Damage in Accessories: If the bull bar is equipped with additional accessories such as winches, hooks, or recovery points, check regularly for any signs of wear, fluid leaks, or stress fractures. Replace any damaged parts immediately to ensure the continued safety and functionality of the bull bar.
-
Test the Recovery Points: If your ARB Front Summit Bull Bar has recovery points, ensure that they are still secure and not showing signs of excessive wear. These points are designed to withstand heavy loads, so it’s important to check for any signs of bending or cracking that could compromise their integrity.
