rear wing protection

[steve@offroadin]

What can you get to stop you catching the rear wings behind the wheels, sort of reshaped mine at the weekend.
I know you can get checkerplate to bolt on but that isnt really strong enough, need a tube bumper arrangement thing, anyone seen one?

[biggmark]

tried strenghtening bars inside rear wings?

Cut them off higher up,
so it runs straight to the back of the truck, as opposed to curving down and getting bent

p.s. how did your jeep pulling go

[steve@offroadin]

really well, 2-1 to me, mine doesnt count as I soaked the coil, was going again 5 minutes later ;)

I really want a tube bumper to run back under the wing from the x member and in to the chassis in an L shape

I've never seen anything like that; I think you'll have to fabricate it. Don't make it too rigid - I know someone who has bent their rear crossmember because the rear corner protector (like the Scorpion type) was too strong and transmitted the load to the chassis.

try a couple of durex extra safes'

you need something like these. i want some as i have bent my rear wing on one side. a few places do them, Rebel4x4 (http://www.rebel4x4.co.uk), North offroad (http://www.northoffroad.co.uk/products.asp) etc.... i think scorpion do them too.

they wouldnt have worked, the front edge needs to go to the chassis for strength

they wouldnt have worked, the front edge needs to go to the chassis for strength oh right. mine is damaged at the back of the wing when the crossmember hits the floor
