Well so I loaned the Monty to my brother who didn't mention that he backed into "something" until the day I was getting it back after like three months and I rather not ask how long had it been there. He paid me $140 which was how much he was quoted for a used bumper off Craigslist. So the dent was bad enough that I could not open the rear door, so before removing it and going to pick up the used one I decided to try my hand at straighten it out with a BFG and a piece of 2x4, which worked pretty good and I was even able to align the corner that was at a 45 degree angle because of it.
I'll add pictures later, so today I took it to work and realized that the fuel gauge stopped working, I was sure that I had at least right under a quarter of a tank and the fuel gauge was at the very bottom, zero, nada. I filled the tank and same thing no reading off the gauge, so I'm sure I knocked the sender out or worked a wire loose with all the banging being close to the tank. I have to wait until I get home to use my computer for the FSM and see what I might have messed up by man handling the bumper back into shape, but if you have any ideas, they are greatly appreciate it.
