I got a deal on mine and free shipping...and MC isn't making theirs right now, otherwise I most likely would have gotten another one of those.

 

just be happy it was a 200 dollar bumper and not a 1000 dollar bed...

 

89silverpu - Sorry to hear about the bumper fail, but like the above poster said, good thing its a cheap bumper and not a replacement bed. lol

Davez makes some good stuff, he's really local to me. where are you located 89silverpu?

 

glad to hear you got you another bumper. personally, ive had nothin but good experience with TG. and i go to my local dealer, and get the stuff cheaper, quite a bit cheaper. i got about $60 off my sliders...

is it just me, or is rockota all over 89's nuts? gah. give it a break!! whats done is done. he said he hit at 5mph, whoopie. why would he lie? to turn everyone against MC? things liek these happen, but it wouldnt stop me from purchasing one.

 

wow 1k? complete nice ones over here on the coast go for about 500.

 

ill be picking up the TG bumper new from a guy on craigslist for $100 so im glad to see it does it parts lol, ill have to get his original receipt so I can complain to them if anything should happen lmao!

 

...the bumper did not fail....

 

Yeah I noticed that you couldn't put them in your cart on MC.com, what's up with that?

 

I'm in Vacaville, yeah I'm stoked for the new rear bumper, but not stoked to have to buy it if ya know what I mean lol

Haha not trying to turn anyone away from MC, the bumper worked great...till it got railed lol and the adapter for dual cases is working great! I like MC, just dissapointed that this happened.

Yeah, 300 to 500...and I need a new bed anyway

They won't be making them for about a month or more...something up with their fabricator...unless it's on the shelf in stock, they won't have any for a while according to the guy I talked to on the phone the other day.

 

Lol..
I've backed into rocks going 10mph with my smitty, been pulled out by my smitty, and ran into trees with my smitty.
No bends in it at all.

 

This is NOT a TG bumper issue. This is an issue with the owner not installing the side supports that are recommended. Any bumper can twist in the frame rails. I have seen Marlin and All-Pro bumpers do the exact same thing.

 

Scott, this conversation has been had. For the last time. The website did not recommend usage for the side supports when i bought the bumper. last i checked i had a 90-95 runner, not a 86-89 runner.

I was new to wheeling i bought the bumper, and being so i didnt know i needed the supports, TG fixed their website to dictate the years recommended for the bumper when i alerted them to the issue when it happened.

 

True that

 

Have you got the Dave's yet?

 

I haven't yet, they were supposed to ship it out Friday, and I haven't gotten the chance to call them and see what's goin on with it. I'll be sure to throw some pictures up as soon as I can

 

I read that thread. Not all of it, but enough to know the story.

Still, the issue isn't with the fabrication of the bumper, how it mounts, or how strong it is. The issue was with you not knowing any better. To blame it on them is weak IMO.
