U900 bumper and pto banana box wanted
« on: January 18, 2015, 02:59:52 pm »
I don't suppose anyone has a U900 bumper lying about that they don't need? Or even less likely a banana box? I'm after both of these parts for mine so drop me a message if you know of one. I'd be grateful for any leads too.

I had a clamber around ACP's yard the other day, and I know for a fact that I came across a pin on din bumper, unfortunately it was buried under a lot of stuff, but ACP are supposed to be having a sort out soon so you might be in luck :) (I think you were talking about getting a din plate in the past)

I've got a din plate in the shed. Just not fitted it! I was actually considering making a bumper that's better suited to what I want. Maybe with a top link mount and with the top section of the din plate built in, so I could still clip on the lower section when needed. Either that or make it so as I could mount linkage rams to it, as I'm sure the front linkage arms mount to the axle as the rear does?

Hi, I have a twisted but complete front bumper which I don't need and your welcome to buy it.

Let me know if you still want one... mine was twisted slightly and I straightened it with a bit of heat and a high lift jack.

Thanks Ed. How much are you asking for it? I'm a bit torn between buying/having one made. An original would look nicer and I could probably still figure a winch mount to go with it as a separate item.

Make me a sensible offer please...  I cannot really post it as it's large, but can take pictures of it soon if you want to see it before you name your price.

The benefit of original is that it's designed to miss something when you turn, so the radius on the corner is something like the turning circle.

Winch mount idea attached in the picture.

It's a 4 tonne hydraulic, fine for my needs.

That's a very nice little setup you have there. Puts mine to shame!

If you could fire me over a picture or two that would be great. You're about two and a half hours from me though so by the time I've factored in diesel it may not be economical. I would suggest a courier but they mess people about to the point that I tend to avoid using them!
