      I like the 4″ square bumper on our Hallmark and would like to do something similar on our new Laredo. Since our truck is a long bed, it has the detachable wrap so I can’t simply use the NorthStar bumper available with the permanent wrap on the short bed models.

      Has anyone fabbed a bumper on a NorthStar or any other TC? I’m thinking about getting some 2″ square and welding up some supports that will fit into the receiver for the hitch. Other ideas?

      How about this. Torklift makes a rear bumper for their short bed model with the permanent wrap. If you have this model with a bumper, can you advise me why it can not be used on a detachable wrap model? It must have to do with support, but is there no way to reinforce the rear on the long bed model? I’m going to call the factory on Monday and ask that question, but thought someone here might know.
