The problem is that after 200 miles the rear passenger side is 1” higher than the driver (with a full tank of gas). The lean gets worse as...

    Dobinson rear bumper rear tail light replacements?

    Anyone find any tail/brake lights that will fit in the dobinson rear bumpers? I've been searching but coming up empty. They are about 60mm or 2.3 inches. Odd size for sure so it is hard to find something that isn't just trailer marker lights.
