i can try to get some. he bumper is coming back off soon, for a bracket replacement. ill see if i can get some today. its gonna be warm, but warmth, means mud, and i have a dirt driveway.

all you need to do is bolt a bracket to the receiver hitch. it doesnt bolt to the frame at all.

 

ok i am tired of not having a bumper

and i just picked up an 02 bumper mint no dents or rust for free

 

gonna bump this thread up.

i never did get around to making stronger brackets. dont have access to a welder, nor the material to make new ones.

original brackets broke at the bend, so the bumper is now back off the truck.

i have contacted wh1t3nukle and have asked for his help on making new ones.

 

I have made my own brackets using the original brackets from the old bumper, I did how ever make a couple of brackets that I welded to the frame.

I welded a big nut on the top of the hitch and have a bolt the size of the hole for the ball on the bumper that holds it up aswell it is not going any where, I will get pics when I change out my bed in a couple of weeks

 

I've got some decent pics and idea of what RNR wants. Just gotta figure when I can get something done in this heat.

 

No worries bud. Take your time.. I still need to buy a fuel pump too. Lol

 

still waiting on wh1t3nukle for the brackets... ill get em soon enough, then itll be complete!

 

I'm hoping to mess with it some tomorrow. It's still damn hot, but I ended up giving a go at making a cart for the welder and tools.





Still have some other doodads to add for more functionality.

 

Its all good man... im not too worried about it.. dont need it for inspection like I thought I did. Just as long as I have them before the snow starts to fly.. take your time bud

 

How about additional pictures of the mounted bumper from different angles??
