Favorite feature of your bump?
Mine is easy, it's my rear bumper! It needs to be refinished, but it's all there!

Re: Favorite feature of your bump?
I'd honestly have to say the 'Lack' of features 
No Power Steering, Brakes or an Automatic Transmission not to mention No Computers
A basic truck that I can work on and most of the time repair myself

Re: Favorite feature of your bump?
I agree with that. I just replaced the fuel filter on my mazda protege and it took me about 4 hours. When i was working on the mazda i thought to myself, man will i be glad when the bump is done so i want have to go threw all this BS to get something done. Everything will be eazier to get to. Old school i guess.MrMajestyk wrote:I'd honestly have to say the 'Lack' of features

Re: Favorite feature of your bump?
Lack of features and the twin I beam are two of the best thing about my bump. One V belt, king pins instead of ball joints, simple as an anvil and twice as functional. I love the 3 speed more everyday. It's a refreshing change from what I work on for a living.

as stated by others is the lack of features is what I love. There is something about the simplicity that I love. It was built to work and to be kept on the road without much problem."If it can't be fixed with a hammer, then it is an electrical problem"

The noise from the parts falling off keeps me from going to sleep at the wheel.
