I've got the Ironman underbody, it is just completely flat and seems to be wider than the ARB bash so I guess the positives are...
1. More protection?? but required protection??
2. More "slide ability" when bottoming out? or on recovery??
However I have recently been looking at changing over to the ARB underbody, because I have found that I am gathering a heap of crap ontop of the underbody protection (when offroad... E.G. Snow and Mudding.)..... There is nowhere for it to get out and their is no air movement that helps move it along.
I prefer the look of the ARB kit, it looks as though it has a smaller surface area and more holes for the crap to get out...
So it's either "manage" the existing issues with a good underbody clean out after every trip or change over to ARB.
Waste more $$ and spend more $$.....So it is down the list a little.....
Barry, the pictures look good. I think you have made the right purchase.. good stuff.
Bernie.

Hey Barry,
Just wondering if you have a better picture of the air con bracket you made up?
I like the idea of that spotGeoff
Im not Bogged - I've just lost traction. . . . . and now I'm showing the wife why I bought those Maxtrax, and the tyre deflator, and the compressor, and the bullbar, and the winch, and a lot of other goodies I've hidden in the Prado
