Best safari bar and hitch-mounted bar?

[adventureman73]

Been a long time since I've been here, since we sold our beloved 2003 Sport Edition T4R back in January 2006, but my wife just got a major promotion, so I bought her/us a brand new 2007 SE.

Anyway, we're looking at getting a safari bar for front-end protection and a hitch-mounted step/bar for rear protection. The Westin looks like a good choice for the front, but I'm not sure where's the best place to get one. Also, I don't have a clue as to where to get the rear guard, or what the "official" name of it is.

Found this Westin on eBay, wasn't sure if it was the right one:

Any help is most appreciated!

Anyone have any input on this?

I bought the stainless Strona bar from the group buy about a year ago. Do not know if it is still available anywhere. Year later it still looks great & no complaints except for non-stainless washers that began to rust. I replaced them with stainless ones. I have also added Hella FF75 driving lights to the bar since the pics were taken. They fit perfectly.

I also have the stainless Go Rhino hitch bar, sorry no pics. Again still looks great after a year, and very handy when washing top of runner.
