Homemade Rear Bumperettes


Recommended Posts

I seem to remember an old thread where someone fabricated their own rear bumperettes/corner protectors and included measurements etc on here.

Cant for the life of me find that thread. Im 99% it was this forum.

Does someone with a better memory than me recall who it was? Im pretty sure it was a well known member.

If you want your bumperettes to work hard don't forget to "tube" the inside of the rear chassis box when you put your bolts thru. Otherwise it will just compress and your bumperettes will be forever loose. Simply measure the inside of the box at the bolt points (simple enough to measure with a vernier) then take a few mm off so you don't struggle to get them in, 20mm sqr tube does the job fine.

Land rovers solution of putting a few load spreading plates on the nut side only works if whatever is mounted is deco only...
