I'll post a picture of the rear bumper this weekend - it's bolted onto my Patrol :thumbup:

Almost forgot to post the pics :redface:

From the side... Not having the silly OE tow-bar poking out underneath the bumper greatly improves the departure angle:

There were one two problems:
* The lights in the new bumper are for reverse and indicators, whilst the OE bumper had tail lights combined with indicators. This forced me to do the "christmas tree lights mod".
* The bumper is flat on the top (no cut-outs like the OE one has). If you're running 33" tyres, you'll have to build a bracket to lift the spare wheel carrier slightly:

Positives:
* Smooth, clean lines.
* Bolts onto existing bumper's 4 bolts on the sides of the chassis and the pintle hook's 4 bolts in the middle of the rear - no modding required.
* Weighs no more than the OE bumper and tow-bar combination.
* Integrated receiver (strengthened using the 4 bolts that used to hold the OE pintle loop) for a removable tow-ball or recovery point.
* Built-in jacking points mounted right next to where the bumper bolts onto the ladder frame chassis (for strength).
* Forces you to do the light mod! :lol:

Ja jong, Rome is mos nie in 'n dag afgebrand nie! Die bumper self het ook bietjie van 'n touch-up nodig en dan moet ek nog plan sien met mud flaps...

Darem is my reverse kamera al ingebou :clap:
