ECB RELEASES FIRST TO MARKET NUDGE BAR

The recently launched nudge bar suits the all-new Ford Ranger XL, XLS, XLT and Sport

Available now from East Coast Bullbars is its ‘first to market’ Nudge Bar to suit the new Ford Ranger.
The 76mm Nudge Bar is available for a wide range of Ranger models from the single cab low-rider to the dual cab 4X4 and trim levels from XL, XLS, XLT, and Sport models.
The Ranger is one of the most technological and feature packed utes of 2022 and ECB says its Nudge Bar works seamlessly with the tech pack options including Autonomous Emergency Braking, Intelligent Adaptive Cruiser Control, Lane Centering, 360-degree camera, Traffic Sign Recognition, Evasive Steer Assist, Matrix LED Headlights, and Active Park Assist 2.0.
It states that the addition of an ECB Nudge Bar will only enhance the safety of your vehicle and not impede on any OEM safety features.
Reinforcing ECB’s commitment to Australian Manufacturing, the new products will be manufactured in its facility in Clontarf, Queensland and are available to order now.
All ECB Nudge Bars are manufactured with high-tensile alloy tubes. This allows the Nudge Bars to maintain maximum strength whilst adding minimal weight, says ECB.
Features include heavy duty spotlight mounting tabs, forward facing camera mount, sensor relocation tabs, and lower cross bar.
Weighing less than 15kg, the ECB Nudge Bar offers protection to the most vulnerable parts of the vehicle while allowing the mounting of accessories such as driving lights or an aerial.
ECB says its Nudge Bar is a smart choice for those not needing the full protection of a Bullbar.
They can be ordered with a choice of powder coat finishes from Black Ripple, Textura Black and Silver Hammer-tone to ECB’s signature mirror polished finish.
“The incentive for the quick release to this product was feedback received from our customers who need solutions for a Nudge Bar upon release of the vehicle,” ECB Operations Director, Jim Griffin, said.
“The popularity of a Nudge Bar to suit the new Ford Ranger allows us to keep competitive with those wanting to add accessories such as Driving Lights or an aerial without having to add a Bullbar.
“Nudge bars for this vehicle have always been one of our top sellers here in Australia with fleets and in the New Zealand market.”
ECB is celebrating 50 years of manufacturing alloy bullbars and nudge bars in Australia. It says its alloy bullbars are built to suit Australia’s harshest conditions, providing premium strength over steel bullbars while being 50 percent lighter in weight.
It says every ECB product is ADR compliant, airbag compatible, and covered by ECB’s exclusive lifetime warranty.
