Depending on your vehicle, and the type of protection you need, bull bar installation can range from a super-easy Saturday-afternoon love-fest to a driveway-hosted blood-match between you, the bull bar and every tool you have in the garage. A lot depends on the vehicle and your level of fabrication expertise, but it’s mostly dependent on the bull bar itself. So, ask yourself, “What is it made from?” and “Who made it?”
Instead of installing bull bars alone, recruit a friend for help. The secret is not to be bullish about it. If the friend feels bullied, or like you’re feeding him a line of bull crap, she’s likely to cow out. So do the opposite, bowl ‘em over with promises of ice-cold beverages and piping-hot pizza pie, and you’re certain to have a helping hand or two hanging around on bull bar installation day.
The other half of the quality bull bar equation is that aforementioned, “reputable dealer.” You see, most bull bar manufacturers are not marketers. They certainly know their MIG welder from their hydrogen rod, and their Honda CRV bull bar from their Ford Escape skid plate, but they usually have no time to market their stuff. That leaves a middleman, and whether it’s the off-road shop down the street or one of those online super-retailers, if you trust the guy who’s selling you the bull bars, you can trust the bull bars he’s selling you.
