Which Bull Bar is Best For Me?

TJM is the oldest manufacturer of bull bars in Australia. The TJM line of bull bars has many styles to choose from including the T17, T15, and T13 bars. TJM emphasizes style over durability. Its a great looking bar with exceptional strength, but TJM falls slightly short of ARB when it come to durability.

ARB is the largest manufacturer of bull bars in Australia. Their line of bumpers is somewhat more limited in style than the TJM, but ARB makes up for this in added strength.

Why not stick with a stock bumper?
As cities grow and forests become more surrounded by people with automobiles the chance of an animal collision becomes greater. Each year there are approximately 500,000 deer/auto collisions resulting in over 100 deaths and thousands of injuries. On average, each deer/auto collision costs insurance companies approximately $2000. Most of our customers purchase frontend protection for insurance from these types of crashes. Having a bull bar on your truck can be the difference between no damage at all and thousands of dollars in auto repair costs. First hand experience has showed us that both the ARB abd TJM bars can withstand deer/auto impacts upwards of 40 mph.

In the event of a collision with another vehicle these bumpers are designed not to over stress the truck frame. Both ARB and TJM design their mounting brackets to give way before the frame begins to bend. This is very important! A bumper is meant to be destructable in the event of a serious collision. Many aftermarket bumpers are over-engineered, which can result in major frame damage and expensive vehicle repair in even minor accidents.

Both the TJM and ARB bumpers are great choices for serious frontend protection. Whether your looking for deer or tree protection a bull bar is a must have for any off road enthusiast.
