Title: Bumper relocation.
Post by: rctinker on May 14, 2010, 01:49:28 AM
So how hard is it to move the rear bumper on a wagon in a few inches so it doesnt hang out there a foot?

From the 1st pic to the 2nd pic?

im gunna guess itll be just like any other car when making the bumpers fit better. Usually requires shortening of the bumper mounts but since yours are prolly like my bobcats and a shocks prolly be safe to just build new mounts all together.

No experience here but thought these past threads may be of use.
