Is my front end twisted or just bumper?
muddyjames:
I have noticed that where the front bumper meets the lights, on the near side there is a gap I can just get my finger tip into and on the off side it is hard and tight up against the light. Also on the near side the end cap hangs lower than the wing and on the off side the end cab is next to the wing.
Could this just be the bumper has been hit or have I hit something harder than I thought and twisted my front end? to do this I would have had to twist the chassis too wouldnt I?
Slightly worried!

There's room for movement in the bumper. Loosen the bolts holding it to the chassis members and you can shove it up and down a bit.

I would imagine so. To twist your chassis, I think it would need a really good impact.
muddyjames:
I know for sure I havent hit anything really hard. I am not the kind of person who goes off roading and does things to potentialy damage the disco. A good days off roading for me is to come home with no damage. I will need to look into the bumper a bit more. Maybe a helping hand from another 4x4 owner and a tow rope may help? :lol:
