Brush bar/Grille Guard -- 95 RRC

[Scheuerle]

Help! I'm having zero luck on finding a front brush bar / grille guard for my 1995 Range Rover Classic, 3.9 with air bags. Apparently the air bags really limit availability of anything that fits. I don't care if it's factory, OEM, aftermarket, straight, curved, whatever, although I'd rather not pay the $3200 that I saw at one site for a factory original. Any suggested sources are welcomed. Thanks in advance!

Land Rover stopped making the brush bar and those that are still available have gone through the roof. I sold one that needed fresh powdercoat on eBay for just under $400 a month ago! I had to ship it half way across the country on top of that.

How about something like and ARB (air bag certified) bumper instead. For $3200 you could get a new one with a winch, lights and still have plenty left over for the suspension.

I bought an aftermarket one for $60.00(minus the headlight protector insert bar thingy), but it had plenty of rust, but I ground it off then let my powdercoater strip and coat it along with my bumpers for $200.00 so if you find one needing some work, don't be too afraid of it.... oh yeah, list where you are located and someone near you may just have what you need

The brush bars for 1995 were specific for that year due to the SRS and the crush cans on the bumper. While I've never tried to fit an earlier style to a '95, it's always been my thought that they just won't be compatible with the SRS system.

Thanks guys. I'm in Michigan. If I see a banged up used one, I'll grab it. If I have no luck, I'll check into either fabricating one, or going the ARB route.
