Hi all, I purchased a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 With the 5.9L 360 Magnum in it about a year and a half ago. When I bought it, it was already lifted. They had put in a 3inch body lift as well as very poorly lifting the suspension (fixed that). But my question is, does anyone know where to find the brackets to lift up the front bumper(since it has the 3inch body lift)? I found the rear bumper brackets, but I put in a custom gap guard so I'm not worried about that. I've searched high and low for those front bumper brackets and just haven't been able to find any.. Any help would be greatly appreciated. or maybe schematics for making new ones to compensate for the lift.


Thanks,
DarkMP40
PS. Picture is My truck, as you can see the gap is fairly big.

check summitracing.com im pretty sure ive seen them on that site. but fyi the rear bumper brackets pretty much eliminate the use of the rear bumper.the brackets will sheer of with enough load.

 

I'm not raising the rear bumper, already got a piece of diamond plate to cover the gap, plus i got a class 5 receiver hitch. I checked on summit, they have the front bumper brackets for every make but the dodge 2nd gen =\

*edit* Upon searching on summit racing I found the rear brackets and looked on the company's website. I found the body lift kit, that comes with the front raising brackets. https://www.shopatron.com/products/p...11.32354.0.0.0 Now if only i could find those separate =\

 

my bumper got smacked this was a good fix

 

what bumper is that my husband had the same one and has been trying to find this exact one for years

 

He hasn't been here for 15 years.......
