I have been reading every thread i can here about brush guards. I have read a few posts stating that bumpers and bumper components like push guards off mid 70's to mid 80's Chevy pickups and full-size Blazers "bolt up" to 67 thru 72 GM trucks. Anybody have experience or seen this bumper on one of our trucks?

I'd say you could make the bumper work, but the grille guard no. At least not have it look good. The difference between the two trucks is 67-72s come to a peak at center front and 73-87s are flat. The bumper doesn't need to go with the body but the guard should. As is, you'll need to move the bumper out a couple inches on a 67-72 due to the peak. Or you could cut the bumper to fit.
