Rear bumper attachement
I have two questions related to attaching a rear bumper. 1. What size and how long are bolts that attach to the bumper shocks to frame and do you really have to remove the gas tank to install rear bumpers?
Re: Rear bumper attachement
I dont know what size they are. M12x1mm I THINK.
yes. you have to remove the gas tank. it isn't too bad of a job though. I would go ahead and drive your spider until its nearly empty of fuel. then drain the remainder.

Re: Rear bumper attachement
and I I did it by removing the tank bolts and kinda moving it "enough" to get to what I needed ...
