so i've decided to design & build my own rear tube bumper... turns out a friendly neighbor does a lot of fab
work (mostly race cars) and has everything (bender, welders, etc).
i'm eager to learn, and have faith in my design, except for one (important) point: the mounting system.
i searched the forums a bit, but it seems like everyone is only building front bumpers (found lots of
photos/descriptions of the front mounting but nothing off the back).
i plan to incorporate a hitch/receiver, so i know i'll need to use both the factory bumper mounting holes
(4 per side) as well as the hitch holes on the rails... but i'm having a hard time visualizing just how that will
look in terms of actually attaching to a tube bumper. some kind of plate/bracketry i suppose...
any insight would be appreciated!
thanks in advance.
