Drop side bumpers

    My 98 Hijet was missing one of the round bumpers that keep the sides and tail gate from banging on the frame.

    Quick trip to the hardware store a 2 pack of door stops later and she is good to go. I’ll get 4 more on my next trip to replace the rest that are rotting away.

    I may cut them down to be the same length as the originals. Will see if it annoys me or not if the sides and back don’t lay flat.

    I made a slight change to how these mount to the truck. I picked up some M8 SS bolts, nylon lock nuts, and 40mmx40mm galvanized square washers. Should not have any issue with these unbolting due to vibration.
