Okay, so when I bought my Blaster it had a DG front bumper on it. My problem is one side is bent back about an inch. Any ideas how to get this thing bent back straight, or am I stuck with a bent bumper for now? Thanks!
 
them DG bumpers are possibly the strongest ever made !!!
this is a 3rd gear wide open crash into big rocks......

i beat on that with a sledge hammer and it wouldn't budge.
i'd say a hydrualic press is the only way you're going to straighten it

btw....my frame was bent too
 
OUCH! Mine isn't that bad! Thank God! I did measure out the frame and luckily it is straight! I was worried about using a press as I thought it might crack. Hmmm......I guess i might just be buying a new bumper someday! Thanks for the input!!!!

Might i ask why you were going full bore into some rocks???
 
Yup mine came with a bent frame, dg front bumber totally wasted never to be straight again,
Welded me up a new bumber with scrap metal, trashed that one, made another,trashed that one and repaired the last lol. don't ask how, it just happens to me.i wasn't even on the machine for the last bumper fatality, she rode off on her on down a very long hill and came to rest on a stump 3 foot in the air lol.
