The rear bumper is a factory-installed device that protects the rear of a vehicle. It's also known as an "impact absorber" or "airbag", and is found on most modern cars. The term was coined in the 1920s.
What is a Rear Bumper?
The bumper serves to cushion the impact forces generated during collisions with other vehicles, by using energy from the impact to rebound sideways and whiplash into compression waves. The shock-absorbing tubes are designed not just for stopping and protecting against damage, but for minimizing damage to your car, including reducing wind noise similar to an aerodynamic spoiler effect when moving at speed. It is intended to protect the finish of the vehicle.
The shock-absorbing feature of bumpers is designed to keep your car's body panels from being damaged in a collision, rather than keeping the car from moving. In the event of an impact, the metal bumper will bend and deform into a new shape that protects your vehicle's structure.
Basic components of a Bumpers: an outer shell and a support member. This outer shell is typically made up of steel or other high-strength material, while the support member is typically made up of rubber or plastic. If you love cars and want to build one yourself enter this competition!
It's hard enough buying a new car bumper and having to deal with the sticker shock. But what if, instead of buying a car bumper, you buy a used car bumper? All of that sudden expense will vanish. And, on top of that, you'll save even more money by knowing more about the potential purchase before you ever set foot in a dealership.
This hasn't been the easiest journey but Jerry made it seamless. The first engine did not work for my daughter's car and we had to get a second engine. Jerry was with us every step of the way throughout the warranty process. The second engine worked perfectly, our daughter is in her own car and all is well with the world. I couldn't imagine going through this, 900 miles away from the company, with someone dodging my calls or avoiding me. Jerry stayed in constant contact and answered every question with confidence.

Good service in finding a 5.9 liter motor and arrange shipping. Received motor and installed. You only get the basic motor components, no power steering pump, no alternator, turbo. So make sure you secure all the components you need to install the motor. 3 year warranty is a nice plus also. I would use your service again. Thanks, Calvin.
