Posted: Mon Sep 29, 2008 4:36 pm Post subject: Truck Specific Rear Bumper? |
|
|
I have a 1962 Singlecab. The rear bumper sits really weird and definitely looks like it doesn't fit to contour of the Truck corners, although it is installed with splash pans. Is there a Truck specific rear bumper for the blade style? If so, where do I get one? I know there is a Truck-specific one for the pressed bumper style.
Could this be modified to fit over-riders after it was massaged out?

'59-'60 trucks had a specific bumper to fit them. In '60 or '61 the actual corner changed and they dropped the truck specific rear bumper.
Knock out two captive nuts and drill four holes and you would have a U.S. spec-version. |
