Hi all, just found this site so thought i would give it a try, got 98 Maverick to pull my caravan and it does a great job. Got one problem that I'll post in tech page but think they are a great 4x4. so see how it goes.

This might be a stupid question but mine has failed the MOT on the same cross member, its rotting on both sides and i like whats been done to this one. Question is will it pass MOT if its been bolted on instead of welded.
Also were can i get those crap clips from that hold the bumper in place?
