Just got back from doing some trail driving. Lots of ruts, ravines and creek crossings. Good fun.
However, I hit ******* my rear bumper. I was dropping down into a ditch, and the greater angle in front was fine, but the rear angle is smaller, so I caught it on the way down. I think I hit on one corner - I can see a small crack that looks like its the impact point. Not worried about that, but there are two brackets that hold the bumper steady from the underside. Plastic pieces that connect the bumper to the frame - just for stability, not to absord any impact.
Anyway, they both broke off completely.
I am looking for two things: 1) an easy way to fix it to reduce bumper vibration. Not even sure its a problem. I need to follow the wife while she drives to see if it even needs to be fixed. 2) a way to help prevent me from completely loosing the rear bumper next time.
Any advice?
