Westin Safari bar damage - 30/03/04 11:34 AM

Well, after a Sunday trek thru coal regions of Shamokin Pa. I noticed a nice dent in the driver side bar of my Safari bar. As I remeber it I was coming out of a nasty mud hole and did not see the rock that was under water and heard a loud bang that I thought was the suspension hitting the bump stops [Freak] , well the Westin took the impact and all the weight of the front end. It did not shift the bar at all, it is still is aligned but now has a 1" long x 1/2" wide x 1/4" deep dent. Just thought I would share that with the fellow X owners that have or had the Westin Safari bar.

Your damn lucky that it only damaged the bar! I avoid water hazards if at all possible! You never know what is in there! Could be a big root or rock or bottomless pit!
