Bumper, that is! I have a Brink towbar and I read on hear somewhere that the bumper sags after a while in the middle!
Does anyone know what is involved to remove the rear bumper?
Thanks in advance

Re: saggy rear
Few screws in the back of the rear arches and 2 about a 3rd of the way in from either side that you need to get underneeth for, they hold the bumper to the steel support that runs behind it.
I think CADDY.D made up something to stop the bumper sagging!

If you have same type brink as mine your bumper wont sag because towbar should stop it (get in the way)....

Re: saggy rear
Had a look under the van last night, I can see 2 angle brackets near the corners of the bumper. there seems to be holes for two more of these brackets nearer to the centre of the bumper. I guess I could make two more brackets, Do you think the dealer left these off when he fited the towbar?

Is it a swan-neck brink towbar?
