I believe it is (or was) universal dealer installed option. i have been under the impression for many many years that most of these trucks were delivered to the dealerships without any rear bumpers installed. I have only been under this impression that the trucks were delivered to the dealers without a rear bumper because of several sections in the vehicle code books for several different states about trucks not equiped with rear bumpers, license plate mounts or lights, blah blah blah.

I could be wrong, and most likely i am. :/
