Rear bumper Question
 
1 Attachment(s)
I might upgrade my current rear bumper on my 67 C10 to the sport style rear bumper. Are the brackets the same for both rear bumpers or will I need to get new brackets as well? Thanks.

Sport bumper brackets look like this:

In addition, there are different brackets for coil spring versus leaf spring trucks.

My Step Bumper, [SAF-T-BUMPER] is supported by a pair of rails that slide inside the rear frame rails. The angular side braces are not used.

Sort of. Op needs to measure the frame rails bolt pattern. If 7.1" it takes the longer inner brackets. If 5" the shorter ones, and both take same outer brackets. If 5.3 then likely need to make something. I'd b interested to know if its not 7.1 or 5.0. If 5.3 I can help.
