I like the look of the stock sport one also, that's what I've got on my stepside.

ECE also makes one that fits behind the sport bumper. That's the way I will probably be going since I killed my roll pan this weekend.

Does anyone know if a hitch off of a 84 or 86 will work?

Boss - I believe the frame rails are the same distance apart and according to the website for Reese hitches, an '84 and a '72 use the same part number hitch so I would assume the one you have will fit. Might have to drill a couple of holes. I have an inexpensive aftermarket step bumper on my '72. If I get a chance, I'll snap a pic today and post.
Edit: remembered I have one already.

Right now I have an old dealer installed one that has the dealer name stamped in it. Mine says JOE'S MOTOR SALES BEEVILLE, TEXAS on it. I had an old wrap-around step bumper but most of it rotted off and I'm in the process of rebuilding it.
Tried to upload a pic but the file size is too big, anybody know how to reduce it? ![]()

chickenwing - It a FEY replacement bumper (one size fits none) and is the cheapest chrome model they offer - all steel, no rub strip or rubber step surface and runs around $180.00 plus mounting kits. I made my own mounts for mine. $180.00 may not be cheap but compared to alot of other step type bumpers available, its reasonable.
