Subaxtreme 3 key Nudge Bar Design Parameters

• If you are going to do something, it might as well be done properly, that’s why all our nudge bars are 76mm (3”) tube, nothing less. 76mm tube suits modern Subaru vehicles, both in appearance and strength.

• With the exception of the 97-02 Forester, we place our nudge bar mounts thru the bumper vents & bolt directly to the front of the vehicle chassis. Many manufacturers take the “easy way” of mounting underneath the bumper. This method significantly reduces your vehicles approach angle, causing it to regularly scrap on gutters, driveways etc.

• Single row design. Because a nudge bar must be held in front of the original bumper, there is quite a bit of leverage on the mounts, by nature. Making nudge bars up to bonnet height i.e. “Two row” or “Loop bar” designs, significantly increases this leverage effect. The result is that they end up causing unnecessary damage to the vehicle in an impact. We believe if more protection than a single row bar is needed, the next step is a to do it properly and fit a full bumper replacement bullbar.
