Have to admit I butchered my rear bumper along time ago. Something wasn't right. When I tightened it down the brackets bent the bumper in places (whoops). Can't/won't happen again. I figure the brackets weren't positioned right.

I mounted the small brackets first on the frame ends and then the bumper to those. Then the outer brackets. Everything loosely until I had all the bolts in.had to trim the left bracket due to the power steering box.
