Fitting up a new tubular front bumper and the jacking points at the end of the chassis are a little unsightly and not required with the new bumper having jacking holes already in it.
So do i need to consider keeping them or cut them off as far as the tie down bolts?
Pro's and Cons?

Get them off!!!

Arent they supposed to fit over them??? Thas what its bolted too

 

[Major Eyeswater]

nope they stick out the bottom, with a chunky box section bumper you don't really see them.

That seems right silly.....your at least gonna have to cover em otherwise there just gonna fill with mud and crap and rot your chassis.

Better picture

if you stand up you won't even notice

Given the new bumper has such large mounts are you sure that they're not meant to surround the chassis jacking points? I.e. the bumper mounts a couple of inches lower.

It dont look right..... an obvious question, is it the right bumper? Any pics from the makers of one fitted to your vehicle?

 

[ed.poore]

Thas what I said

Yeah, but he ignored you!

Nope just cooking dinner,
The bumper is fitted correctly I'd need to do a darn site more with the angle grinder if it weren't.
Only thing I am looking to fit soon is a steering guard but guess that'll be bolted via the tie down bolts which I intend to leave in place.
Thanks for the thoughts though!

i'd paint 'em black to disguise 'em.
what happens if you get a new landy and put yer tubular bumper onto that, the new owner won't be happy with no front jacking points

 

[Major Eyeswater]

sell my 90!!! I'd rather stick wasps up my ar$e!!
Bumper only cost me £50 anyway so never likely to get too precious over it.
Grinding at dawn tommorow, T minus 12hrs and counting.....

I'd leave them on, you may come to regret chopping them off

 

[Sirus]

Leave em on paint em black and get some of them grommets to fill the holes
