Availability of Rubber End Caps for Mount-n-Lock Heavy-Haul'r Replacement RV Bumper

Question:

Do you also carry the rubber endcap that will fit this bumper. From what I read, the little screws associated with the metal endcap fitting wont allow a CAMPCO Rhino hose to fit in the inside and you need to file it down?

The review we have that references this was for the # MNT43VR which is the 4" bumper. Standard endcaps like the # CAM40303 or whatever is on your current bumper would likely fit on the end. The customer in the review reused their old caps from the previous bumper instead of the metal plates.

If you're wanting the # MNT63VR which measures 5-5/16" there is no option for alternate endcaps for the bumper. You may be able to get the hose in there since there is additional space compared to the 4" bumper. If you can get it to bend slightly within the space as you feed it in that might do it, but there is no guarantee it will fit.

Filing it down could work as long as you don't take it too far to where the plates aren't secure. Alternatively, you could drill a new hole to the left or right of the original hole and move the screw to the corner where there is more space that won't interfere with the end of the hose.
