Default Replacement Bumper

I have a 2004 Ram 1500 Quad cab 4x4. I’m looking to get a replacement bumper but all I can seem to find are for the 2500/3500. Will these fit on the 1500 without having to make modifications?

Sport (painted) or chrome? Used or new? I got my painted (rather primed) one from Summit Racing a few years ago. I found the aftermarket chrome ones tend to rust. I don't think there is any difference between 1500/2500/3500 rear bumpers. The attachment parts may vary as the frames are taller on the 2500/3500. But you're usually buying just the outside anyway.

I have a spare oem chrome one, pretty good shape. I'm replacing it because I'm switching the truck to the sport style. PM if interested and I can send pics.

Yes the 2500/3500 bumpers fit the 1500 with no modifications. I put a rear steel ranch hand style one on my 05 with no problems. It was unbolt old one and bolt in new one. Took like maybe an hour.
