Location: Healdsburg Ca | Me again. Little girl would like to put in a butt bar. Just looking for a place that has them. I understand how they work, just having a hard time picturing the mounting process. Thanks for looking. |

Location: Cornfield in Iowa | We have ordered stuff from here: http://www.sundownerparts.com/.sc/ms/cat/Trailer%20Body%20Components--Breast%20%26%20Butt%20Bars This is from the Sundowner page, but it looks like they supply parts for other kinds, too. |

Location: Healdsburg Ca | Thank you. I have seen that page... My question on that bar is, I guess you drill a hole at the intersection of the "V" in the white delron part for the pin??? Then how does the loop on the bar attach? With a "S" hook maybe to the C shaped bracket? |

Location: Florida | You are correct on the Sundowner bar the plastic V is just a guide to help align the spring loaded pin on the bar when positioning the bar across the stall. It's attached with the 4 rivets since it doesn't actually hold anything. The loop on the other end of the bar is mounted directly by the C bracket so there is no slop in the bar across the opening. Just make sure the dimension of the bar is correct for your stall width before ordering. |

Don't know why I could not see that in my mind.... Thank you. |
