This style bumper. 67-72 c10
I don't have any. I haven't do that swap. I do know this though, the bolts will not line up. You will have to make some custom brackets to make that swap work. If you pull off the OE bumper, with the brackets on it, that bolt into the frame, then get the bumper you want, with a set of brackets on it, the slides into that frame, then you can see what needs to be done. I would think that you will have to kind of blend the two brackets together so it fits the GMT 400 truck (1988 - 1998 body style GM trucks) and weld in the section that fits the square body style truck, or in this case, the burb, bumpers. As for the posting a pic of one. I don't have a pic of one. Way back when, like in the 1970s, the dealers would have a stock of bumpers that they would install on a new truck. On the left side of the bumper, it had the dealers name in graves into the metal, and in the rite side, it had the town that the dealer was in. That style of bumper, is what I remember seeing on the very early GMT 400s. Maybe a 1988 thing only, IDK. Point is, that bracket may work to swap an earlier style bumper into you truck.Center console looks great. Can you post a picture of your 67-72 gmt400 bumper swap?
Yeah, I remember those bumpers. Got you. See where the bolts are on the bumper? Rounded head. That's what I'm talking about. You need those brackets so you can swap the part that fits your frame. You may even get lucky, and be able to slide the old school bumper brackets into your frame, and just drill new holes, IDK.You must be registered for see images attachYou must be registered for see images attach
Yup I remember those! Our '78 Sierra didn't have a bumper on the rear, just a license plate bracket and light bolted to the left frame horn. We put a body color bumper on it, after the truck got badly wrecked and rebuilt when we had only had it a year.Ok, I found a pic. This is the style bumper I'm talking about. These bumpers for the GM trucks, had the same rounded head bolts holding them onto the the brackets. Basically, they both use the same mounting brackets, in the square body and the c-10 trucks.You must be registered for see images attach
