Does anyone else have a tow bar fitted like this? I'm wondering how the bumper is fitted - when I removed the old bumper there were huge nuts used as spacers on the two threads provided. Is there a proper way to fit the rear bumper to this bar? And proper parts I need to buy?
(this is my first attempt at posting photos, hope it works!:)

Normal towbar mounts have a piece on either end that comes out and is at a right angle. Theres holes in it to attach your bumper to. You seem to be missing them. You could either get a bracket welded on or go with what was originally done on it, but with bigger bolts then them piddly little things!
