Swing arm stop.

I got tired of the swing arm banging against the brush guard when the gate opened. The tire side is ok because the gate hits the tire. More than once I have not locked the gate then drove off seeing it swinging in my rearview mirror. Other times the wind caught it ripping it open against the brush guard and the utility box. I added this rubber stop to keep the damage from occuring to my new utility box. It looks ok and works well. These stops are avaliable in a variety of shapes and sizes from most auto parts stores. This one is made by Dorman products #31053.

Where is Kaiser Wilderness? That fire tower picture looks familiar. Is it in Idaho?

Sam this would be for a different section but it's above (east of) Fresno. It is a great location that has several fairly easy trails and that one is called Mount Tom Lookout. Much easier than Bald Mountain OHV. There are several high class OHV trails in the area though. I plan to try them this summer. If you want info PM me. Happy to respond.
