I bought some D-Rings to put on my ARB bumper a while back. The only problem is that ARB doesn't provide a good mount on their bumper for D-Rings. The mount is not wide enough to allow them to hang straight and not rattle so needless to say, when I put them on I wasn't happy with how they looked or how they rattled around.
I was trying to figure out how to best solve the problem without having to weld something on the bumper and thought of using a polyurethane bushing. While I was in Dallas I stopped by 4Wheel Parts and just asked if they had any "extra" bushing laying around their shop that were left-over or extras from the many lifts they install? After telling the guy there what I was doing he went to the back and came out with several and put them in a bag. Major Score... for free!
So I used a vise and a hack saw, cut off the narrow end and then had about a 1" bushing left. I cut the bushing in half and installed. They fit perfect now and look great. No more rattling either. Here are some pics... I just love free mods!
