VW Rear Bumper Bracket Mount (Right Passenger Side) – 111-809-636A The 111-809-636A is the essential passenger-side counterpart to the left rear bumper mount. This structural repair panel is designed to be welded into the rear wheelhouse area of the classic Beetle, providing the heavy-duty threaded anchor point for your rear bumper brackets. In many air-cooled Volkswagens, this specific area is a high-corrosion zone because it sits directly in the path of road spray from the rear tires. Fabricated from die-stamped, heavy-gauge steel, this mount includes the factory-correct captive nuts to ensure a seamless, bolt-on installation of your bumper assembly once the metalwork is complete. Replacing a rusted or thin original mount with this high-quality steel section is the only way to ensure your rear bumper is level, secure, and capable of supporting the weight of early-style overriders and guards. Detailed Vehicle Compatibility This mount is factory-correct for the following "Standard" Beetle models: VW Beetle (Standard): 1952, 1953, 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967 Product Highlights & Features Exact Mirror of OE: Specifically designed for the right-hand (passenger) side with the correct offset and bolt pattern. Captive Mounting Hardware: Features pre-installed threaded nuts to eliminate the struggle of holding a loose nut inside the body cavity. Structural Rigidity: Restores the weight-bearing capacity of the rear bodywork, essential for proper bumper alignment. Weld-On Design: Provides a permanent, professional-grade repair that is superior to temporary patches. Technical Specifications Part Number: 111-809-636A Side: Right (Passenger Side) Material: Die-Stamped Steel Installation: Weld-On Installation & Maintenance Tips Symmetry Check: When installing both sides, measure the distance from the ground to the center of the mount on both the left and right sides to ensure your bumper won't sit crooked. Clear the Threads: After welding and painting, run a thread chaser or a tap through the captive nuts to clear out any weld spatter or overspray that might bind the bumper bolts. Undercoating: Because this part lives inside the wheel well, ensure it is coated with a heavy-duty undercoating or stone-guard paint after final bodywork to prevent the new steel from rusting. Bolt Inspection: Always use high-quality 8.8 grade hardware when mounting the bumper brackets to ensure they don't shear or loosen under vibration. 111809636A
