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!

dammit! anyone know why my photos didn't post? I followed instructions on wiki . . . !

tahnks for posting the pics, Airhead. What did I do wrong, anyone?

It must have been cause the text was in caps. Wouldnt have thought that would make a difference but there you go!
