Re: Bumper Attachment for Rapid Removal
Our bumpers had two fanged head bolts that came out of them and went through matching holes in the frame. Wingnuts held the bumpers onto the frame. We could mount/dismount the bumpers in a few minutes.

If you look at the picture you can see the bolts on the back of these partially assembled bumpers.

There was lots of hand clearance to get the wingnuts on and off.
