Feroza - rear bumper replacements ?

Post by MightyMouse »

Over the time I've seen some feroza rear bumper replacements posted on here - and some were very well done.

Mine are getting a bit on the second hand side and I really need to make something stronger before they get too bent out of shape.

I'm looking for something that provides wrap around protection as well, so a straight piece of steel isn't really what I'm after.

if you have any pics / links or suggestions I'd appreciate it.

It seemed like a much better idea when I started it than it does now.

I will try to find a pic of a feroza that has a bullbar wrap around the rear if that is what you want?

Yes, that's exactly the sort of inspiration i'm after......

making strong isn't really that hard ( although light isn't always easy ) but like nost peple I'd prefer it to look good too.

Seeing what others have done always helps.

Thats a very good looking unit, is it aftermarket ?

IF so who makes and how much - would be nice to actually not have to make everything for once.

Home made.... but I'm happy with them. Stops it rubbing the flares on rocks etc etc and helps getting in and out as a side benefit.

Just bought a TJ rear bumper...gonna try and fit over the next couple of weeks. But now I need some replacement brake lights/indicators, as they sit on the existing bumper. Any tips on what I need to get the rear bumper to fit?

Just put F300 taillights back in the rear guards where they already should be.... its much more practical to have them in the rear guards away from the water etc....

Who knows the wiring might even still be there or simply plug in extensions that can be disconected.

AndrewFelix - PLEASE POST PICS....... Please Please.... love to see how this works out.
