pretty sure they are different. the l series chassis rails are a bit wider than the MY/brumby's which is what they bolt onto.

Deadset...Spewin aye...
Looks like I may ave an aluminium brumby bar up for sale pretty soon then aye...anyone interested...
I bought 1 off a brumby 2 year ago, (its sittin at a mates atm) to put onto my 83 l series at the time, long story short, sold that wagon, and recently acquired an 88 touring wagon for $500, (178kms, bit o rust about windscreen, other than that shes in great nick).
I just assumed it would be the same size, and u know wot they say bout that...hehe..
Sounds like ur in the same sorta boat Green Eyed Liberty, may ave been able to work sumthin out between the two bars if u were a bit closer aye...

dang it. I have no idea how to mount a bullbar to the 199o L series I bought yesterday. Do I need to make new mounts or something??
