Hi All,

Anyone knows where I can get a rear bumper for my Clipper. I'm sure I can get one from JC Whitney put I don't know the part number.

I'm heading to a junk yard today and could pick one up. If one from another vehicle would work that would be great too. Let me know.

Thanks!

REAR BUMPER.- The Rear Bumper on the latest model BORN FREE brand motor homes looks like an exact fit for our Clippers.     If that don't work out. Check the back isues of the news letter, or check the web pages back to the  date of the Mount Hood Oregon National meeting. they  should have some information about a source for rear special order bumpers from a Salinas Calif club member at that time.    Good Luck BobChaney

Big Ray...

This reply might be too late to help you, but on one of my junkyard forages.. remembering I have a Dodge chassied '76... the rear bumper AC used is the same one what came on a Sportsman van.

This is kindda funny.  I took my rig to a friend's this past Saturday, and they had just trimmed a ficus tree, with the trimmings piled along the driveway.  Trying to maneuver out after dark, I snagged my bumper on a branch.  

Guess what I need?

There ain't no justice.

Got to love it 'ey. Mine has a few of rust spots. I hit them with a grinder the other day and the bare metal where the rust spots were, looks better than the rust. For sure!

However, I didn't apply anthing to it and the rust is coming back already. I guess I'll put some clear or something to prevent the rust until I can replace that puppy.

Horst,

I bought some of that from Home Depot when I got my clipper and returned it without using it
