Less than a week old and I managed to back into a telephone post. The hit pushed in the rear bumper to the point that it was pushing into the muffler.
I removed it and attempted to straighten it out. Upper right bracket was bent and the tube was pushed out. Worked on it for about 3 hours. Never could get it to go back on. Might of been better to try too straighten it out while it was still mounted.

Need to have one made out of better steel. Hope the roll bar is made out of better steel than the better?

Yes the same one.

I better not let the wife back mine up then lol

 

[Kirk57]

Had my wife with me, using side mirrors never saw it. Maybe I need a center mirror too?

Hope it saved your plastic. Guess that's why they call it a grab bar and not a bumper

That's why, when I get the money saved up I'm going to the fab shop down the road to get some custom beefy bumpers made.

LOL grab bar. Tie anything on to it and it would prob bend.

Mine is tweaked too, just from backing through a steep ass ditch..but Extreme Metal Products has my machine right now, and is using it to fab up a rear bumper that should be beefy as hell. So if you guys wait a few weeks they should have it for sale.

Here is the one they make for the Viking...Mine should be somewhat similar I assume, should be done in a few weeks tops.

 

[Kirk57]

That would be perfect.
