Anyone used a front bumper for the rear?

Would they bolt right up?

Just call me Sean

Why would you want to do that? Just use a Blazer rear bumper.

I suppose it could be done, however id think it would look quite out of place and the rear bumper is flat whereas the front bumper has a bit of a v shape to it.

My buddy installed a 73-80 front bumper on the rear of his Suburban. Works quite well, I don't believe it was a 100% bolt up however. Looks good too.
