Rear bumper reinforcement woes
Took my rear bumper off to fabricate the trailer hitch and the driver's side was so corroded that the bolt snapped off and when I pulled, the aluminum mount inside the bumper reinforcement also broke right out.
The bolt I can drill out and re-tap the hole, the bracket inside the reinforcement, not so sure.
I noticed that they're riveted in with three large rivets, does anyone happen to have a bumper reinforcement that you can drill out the rivets and send me the mounting brackets?
Has anyone attempted to repair these by cleaning it out and welding in a new piece?
Any guidance would be appreciated as I currently don't have a rear bumper attached.
