my neighbour just took delivery of the latest Ranger fitted with an
A R B bull bar and we were about to fit an insect screen in behind the grille when he said open the bonnet
I pulled the release lever
and went around to lift the bonnet
but I couldn't get my hand down from the top to reach in under the bonnet to release lever
so then I tried from under the bar the bull bar is so close to the bonnet in the end i couldnt get my hand or finger in there
the owner then showed me with much difficulty that he could only just reach the bonnet latch with the very tip of his middle finger by forcing his hand hard inwardly up under the top bar
I then had a go and was really struggling to touch the latch this is a monumental stuff-up the center of the large top bar is right in close to were the bonnett splits and lifts from the body section
my question is has anyone else that owns the lastest ranger fitted with the A R B bar encountered this problem or is this a 1 off stuff up I told him to take it back but he has gone on holidays atm
