Ray McCaleb 23 Posted July 27, 2020 I am nearing completion of a Grand Hauler build, mostly stock. I have installed the MFC 01 and would like to use the front fog lights but the stock GH bumper lacks mounts. I would like to hear what others have done. Considering after market bumper or drilling the GH bumper and building light buckets. As an alternative, will an unmodified King Hauler bumper solve the issue?

Nick G 54 Posted July 27, 2020 King hauler bumper would do the job if you don't want to go down the route of modding your existing one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Nick, that is my likely direction at this point. I do like the looks of some of the aftermarket accessories including the front bumper with fog lights, but they are polished aluminum and I am not sure how that will look with the stock chromed pieces. Now, to find a stock KH bumper someone will part with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JNSD1 288 Posted July 29, 2020 I got 3mm chrome led holders. They work perfect if you need. Just drill the front bumper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a King Hauler bumper coming from Bob. I will install the fog lights in it and see if I like the look. If I decide to go back to the Grand Hauler bumper I will certainly be in touch.

Ray McCaleb 23 Posted August 12, 2020 I installed the King Hauler front bumper with fog lights. I also decided to use the half rear fenders with mud flaps. I like the look. Thanks for the input. Ray 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiya Fan 1 114 Posted August 27, 2020 It's not bad you went with half fender/mud flaps instead of fenders. I read in another post you are getting a flatbed trailer and motorized legs. The motorized legs will gouge the fenders any way. (one of them)But they really add to the realism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And, I like the look...a bit more old school. I was not aware that the fenders would limit operation, but that is good to know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tamiya Fan 1 114 Posted August 27, 2020 Hi topforcein Did you do any thing special to it? There is a screw that gouged out my FH-12 fender backing up and turning. The Grand Hauler also said something about i in the manual. I've read it in forums to. Did you go wireless or anything? Don't want to give out bad info. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topforcein 1764 Posted August 28, 2020 no nothing both are built as per kit instructions and yes it does say to use the short fenders but the full fenders are one of the reasons i brought the grand hauler 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
