making those awsome bumpers from car tryes n wheels ...
ok , so i guess i go to a scrapyard and get a couple of wheels with tyres on ..
who do I approach to make the plates that attack for the loading holes ?
im presuming its a fairly easy job and wont cost more than 20 or 30 quid ??
i need them 1" diameter too ..coz im a pov and only have shot weights

get some plates, nuts and bolts. mark the position of the bolt holes from your wheels on the plates. drill holes in the plates. bolt them together!
bodypower plates are reasonably easy to drill through.

I used the wheels from my Vw Transporter T4 then drilled and tapped a small plate all welded on a scaffy bar, also if you can try and use the original nuts as they centre in the wheel, I will take Photos on the morrow for you
