muddysteve:
As some of you may remember i got myself a nice HD bumper for the back of my disco, then when it arrived it didnt fit  see http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=6189&view=next

Well my HD bumper for my rangie arrived yesterday  so out this morning to fit it

you can guess where this is going cant you

why cant people make these things and make them right  


Not naming any names as i've phoned them and they are going to get back to me and the service so far has been good


A thoroughly cheesed off

It's probably due to landrovers build tollerances rather than the aftermarket gear.

normally i'd agree but its the chassis would need some SERIOUS adjustment to get this thing to fit

Where did you get it?

I had one made by Mill Services for my old RRC and trying to get it to fit my new RRC was a nightmare. As said its LR build quality.

muddysteve:
is the chassis back end that different between older and newer classics then?

Steve

paul_humphreys:
Its the same, just the build quality is not up to much. Very big tolerances.

should have stuck with the dicrapsu then.
