P1000 Rear Bumper

[JLH]

I'm looking for a rear bumper for my PK3. All that I like say it won't fit a 3, but will fit a 5?? What keeps it from fitting a 3?

I put the one on that honda makes for the p1000-3.

I've seen that one but there are others I think I like better, they say they won't fit a 3. You have any idea why they won't?

Must have something to do with the bed being wider on the 3. I don’t know of any differences other than that.

Bed is wider on the 3 seater. HMF makes a nice rear bumper for the 3 seat

They probably mount to the Rear cage section on the 5. Since the 3 doesn't have a rear cage they won't work.
Just one example. You can see where it ubolts on to the support bars for the rear cage. Most of the rear bumpers I've looked at mount up similar way.

Those mounting locations are on my 3 seat. I used them to connect my homemade bumper. The problem I had in making one is the bed dumping but not making the bumper sit too low or hang off the back of the where it would be snagged on obstacles. It looks to me like the 3 seat bed hangs further rearward of the hinge point that the smaller 5 seat bed. My compromise was to make the bed dump with the tailgate closed only. I dont haul gravel and such so this doesn't bother me and I can still easily check my oils.

I don't mean the mounting points on the frame where the cage mounts. Most of the 1000-5 Bumpers I've looked at actually mount to the rear cage itself. The 3 doesn't have a rear cage. That's why most of the bumpers say they only fit the 5 and not the 3.

Factory honda, EMP, and KFI bumpers mount to the bed frame and tailgate portion of the bed. Heres my KFI

Nice. Does it interfere with bed dumping.

No it doesn't.
