    Sue, I think Ron is right about pulling the lower cladding mount out a bit. If you've been to Moab, and I know that you have , you have probably pushed those mounts back a little bit. They are just flimsy pieces of metal used to hold the bottom of the cladding in place. I've bent them around a couple of time just pulling the front cladding off, or tryin to put it back on. You can really just leave the cladding on and give the bracket a good tug toward the front of the VX and it should move with no problem.

    I would have thought my Bull Bar took any impact ....but who knows....plus there's always the "hand-built" aspect we so frequently see.....
