    D2 Rear Bumper

    Hail all the Guru's!
    I have to remove the rear bumper on the Disco.
    Looking at RAVE there appears to be only 2 bolts holding it on.
    Is that correct, or am I missing something?

    When I've finished fixing it, how important is it to "tighten bolts securing rear bumper to chassis to 45Nm (33lbf.ft)"?

    Bearing in mind I have no torque wrench, will "FT" do?
    Or should I really be looking to get a torque wrench before attempting the job?

    Cheers,

    Your right...

    And just tighten then 'nip' up will be fine.
