STOLEN FRONT PELFREYBILT BUMPER

Yea that’s been happening since the turn of the century. Internet makes things too easy.

 

And some people make it easier with social media, posting pics and talking about being away on vacation. Might as well leave the door open with a sign "Nobody Home, Come On In"

 

$10 bucks at walmart just removed your 5 point bolt

 

When theft under $900 is not prosecuted under CA law, this is what you get. ( just read first few pages, sorry if this was already stated)

 

Since the threads don’t extend to end of the studs, you might try slipping an oversized washer over end of one or two of the studs and use a spot weld, (away from threads) to hold washer in place and hope bumper thief didn’t bring a grinder. Washer will prevent getting a socket on the nut but easy for you to grind off spot weld if you need to remove bumper.

 

fuuuh I was going to get some old man emu shock kit but looking at this thread ill just stick with my cheap ass Bilsteins lol


If this keeps happening to more people vendors/manufactures won't have a choice but to put Security measures on there products.

 

Where do you live in San Diego? It is pretty safe in Vista except for a few places you can identify on the crime maps.

 

S. Santa Fe is one of the sketchier streets if ever parked my truck. You mean to tell me that vista isnt that bad with all those chop shop industrial buildings right there?

Heh heh. I know what you mean. I park at Bear Roots Brewery, but they have a large glass front so we can look out. I just don't hear an uproar about crime around here. We are essentially a "small farm town" (by SOCAL standard). I'm sure one get get in trouble in the wrong place. Pomelo Drive (south of 78 off of Hacienda) is a bastion for theft and drugs. Lots of apts.
