Does anybody out there know a rough price for a bullbar for a 04 GXL Turbo Diesel Prado. I have been quoted $2300 from Toyota for the Genuine Alloy bar, plus labour which could be up to 6 hours, maybe more @ $100/hr. There is no way i will be paying that, thats just murder. Does anybody know the price of an ARB one and also are they much heavier then the Alloy bar? Little worried about putting a steel bar on though cause of the cracking issues. Will be doing some fairly corrugated work so dont wanna have too much weight over the front. Thanks

I payed around $950 fitted from ARB. I’ve had both the aluminium bar on a 2003 Prado, and a steel bar on the current 2007 model. The difference in weight isn’t noticeable.
Not sure where all these cracking stories are coming from. I’ve never had a problem......maybe an urban myth?
Both cars have had their fair share of corrugated roads and tracks, so I don't think you have too much to worry about.
