Has anyone had the bumper tabs on their Axys break off? Don't want to pay the 299.99 for a new Carbon Fiber Overstructure? Heres a quick, simple, and inexpensive fix for you!

Incorporating a longer bolt, and a mount tab, these can be applied rather quickly. If there is enough of the original tab, you can install the supplied bolt through the original tab by drilling a quick hole.

Cost is 35.99, and they are available for both sides as needed. In stock and ready to ship!

Any other questions, feel free to PM me, or give me a call at 208-853-5550!

Thanks!

Is this piece cast or machined?
Forged?

Bumper Tabs

The part is machined. That is one of the ways we kept the cost low, since forging it would cost a lot more money.

VERY NICE!!

Looks as if it makes this area much stronger, AND still allows a "fail point" for the tab instead of breaking the overstructure if hit again.

Daniel,

Nice work... and will help a lot of our readers!!


In addition to this product.. It would be nice to see one that mounts to an unbroken tab... to make the factory setup stronger and act as a problem preventer.

Talking with my boss Jack, he does not have any plans to come up with one to reinforce a non broken tab. If it isn't broken, there is no need to put one on, as if you hit something hard enough to break the tabs, you will probably need to replace your bumper anyway, and you could install our fix when you put the new bumper on. You could also buy them, throw them in your bags, and then install them in the field if you do happen to clip something.

The other reason is we do not want to beef something up too much, and when you hit something, it ends up causing more damage.

Any other questions, feel free to ask!
