Video Transcript for An In-Depth Look at the Mount-n-Lock Heavy-Haul'r Replacement RV Bumper

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Mount-n-Lock Heavy-Haul'r 92 inch long six inch wide aluminum RV replacement bumper with the bare mill finish. It has a 600 pound weight capacity. Now this bumper kit here will let you add a bumper or replace your stock RV bumper for extra durability and a higher weight rating. This is a nice heavy duty aluminum bumper. Gives you the higher weight rating so that you can safely haul your bikes or your generators to your campsite.

And it's also great for supporting cargo carriers and other bumper mounted accessories. Now if you did want to add a two inch hitch to this bumper, we do sell a part that allow you to clamp on a two-inch hitch receiver. That's part number MO64VR. We do sell that separately on our website and just to pop up an insert there with that two-inch hitch receiver add-on would look like, you can see it clamps around the bumper and gives you a two inch hitch receiver opening. And again, it is sold separately on our website and it's listed on this product page as a related product.

Now this also uses 10 heavy duty brackets, five brackets on each side, five over here, five on this side. They clamp together, they'll attach to your vehicle's frame right here and then they'll reinforce the bumper to prevent heavy loads from damaging it. So it's less likely to lead to bumper detachment compared to a stock bumper with the same weight. This is a hollow compartment, has vented end plates. You can see the end plate here that's vented, one on the other end's the same way.

And this will let you store your smelly sewer hoses or fittings inside your bumper. The vents on here will circulate fresh air to prevent moisture and mold buildup when you're storing those. And the way you install your sewer hoses, you just lift up on this vented plate. You can see that it'll slide out of the way and then you can put your hoses in there, put your fittings in there, even if they're wet. Once they go in there, drop this plate in to place and it'll hold it in place.

And again they're vented to let fresh air flow through there. Now this is a rustproof lightweight aluminum construction. This one has a bare mill finish to it. Now the bare mill finish can be painted to the color you want. This bumper also is available in a brushed finish. The brushed finish will be shiny. It will hide scratches but will hold dirt since it's a rough surface. And then they, excuse me, they also offer this in a glossy black powder coat mirror-like finish. It is a bolt-on installation. Bolts to your RV's frame. Comes with the included hardware right here, a nice set of instructions. Now there is some drilling required to install this. Also, a couple notes is if your RV frame is shorter than your RV's body, you will need extension plates that we sell separately, part number MO24VR. Also, if your RV's body will extend to the bottom of the frame you'll need the drop plates, which we sell separately, part number MO84VR. Now this part is made in the USA. Application, this bumper will fit I beam, S beam, tube and channel frames. Now if the frame on your vehicle happens to be a flanged frame, it must be at least four inches tall and three inches long for this to work. If it's a non-flanged frame, it must be three inches tall and three inches long. Dimensions on this, again, from that end, all the way to that end is 92 inches long. Six inches wide, six inches tall. Does have a maximum capacity of 600 pounds when it's evenly distributed. And the weight on this bumper is about 42 pounds. But that should do it for the review on this Mount-n-Lock Heavy-Haul'r 92 inch long six inch wide aluminum RV replacement bumper with the bare mill finish.
