Default 4th Gen bumper conversion

Im sure many of you have seen a 2nd gen with a 4th gen 2500 bumper on it. i personally love the look it gives the truck and im wanting to do that to my Ram. Have any of you done this conversion? if so, is there alot of fabricating to make it fit or does it just bolt right on? let me know, im sure alot of people are wondering the same thing.

I'd love to see a picture and write-up. My rear bumper is rusting from the inside out, and one of these days will start showing and need to be replaced.

There is very little of my rear bumper left....... I think more of it is gone, than remains.

I don't know why I was thinking rear bumper. I like the newer rear bumpers with the partial cut-outs for the dual exhaust.

Yeah, the front looks something like this (not my truck):



There is a company called OverkillFab that makes brackets for the conversion.
