SILVER Star
Folks-
I recently bought my daughter her first car...Single owner 2006 100 Series with 284k miles in crazy good condition....got super lucky and she is thrilled.
However, when I went to open the tire carrier on the ARB bumper, it was extremely difficult. Upon closer inspection, I figured out why; the rubber piece at the end of the tire-side swingarm had been lost/removed/was gone. This caused the arm to rest metal on metal on the support tube at the furthest extent of the swingarm. So, I moved the piece from the much lighter jerry can swingarm over to the tire carrier swingarm, cleaned everything up and it works much better now.
MY QUESTION relates to the availability of spare parts for these bumpers. I have had some luck finding the part number for the red bumpstops that have completely disintegrated and they currently sit in my basket at Summit Racing.
My GOAL is to find a full sheet of the parts that go into the build of these bumpers, but I have low hopes for this being available.
SECOND BEST, would be the part number for the rubber end piece AND an idea of where said piece can be obtained.
I have requests out to ARB in both the US and OZ.
Many thanks to all IH8MUD folks for being such a resource.
Cheers!
