so this thread has made me question the way our bumpers currently are setup. So will this pass inspection:

We have two rails running horizontally. These rails are roughly 1.5 and 5.5 inches off the ground (distances are to the bottom of the rails which are 1 in square tubing). Approximately every 11 inches there is a vertical rail. So, by the way I look at it, as long as we mount the bumpers flush with the top rail we should be fine. This will give us a hard back the entire length of the bumper.


Also, if we use some 1/8 in aluminum angle on the top and bottom of the bumpers, it will space the plywood that far from the frame. Is this legal?

Thanks for your help. Trying to avoid another repeat of our rookie year where we had to totally redesign the bumpers after Boilermaker.
