Installation Manual
Weight: 42 kg
The Nissan Navara D23 brought coil-spring rear suspension to the dual-cab ute segment, delivering ride comfort that its leaf-sprung rivals couldn’t match. Now protect that refined rear end with the RIVAL Aluminium Rear Bar — a purpose-built replacement for the factory bumper that delivers genuine off-road-grade protection without compromising the Navara’s standout ride quality. Whether you’re threading your way through tight creek crossings in the Kimberley or reversing a loaded trailer into a narrow campsite along the Murray River, this rear bar has your Navara covered.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?
Reduced Rear-End Weight
At 42 kg, this rear bar preserves the Navara D23’s coil-spring suspension dynamics and payload capacity — critical for a vehicle designed around ride comfort.
Superior Corrosion Resistance
Naturally resistant to rust — ideal for Navara owners tackling beach driving on Fraser Island, coastal salt air in the Whitsundays, or dusty conditions across the outback.
Engineered Energy Management
Aluminium deforms progressively under impact, assisting in energy dispersion during low-speed reversing impacts.
Optimised for Modern Vehicles
Compact, lightweight design works in harmony with the Navara’s unique coil-spring rear suspension, maintaining maximum departure angle and ride quality.
