Unhappy help needed info on 4x4 rear sport bumper brackets

I have a pair of NOS rear splash shields and am confused. I have what I thought were original sport bumper brackets for the rear, but the hole for the shields seem too wide???? I think that the problem is the rear brackets in particular the inner brackets. Can someone pull a measurement and possibly some pictures of their setup please? If I have the wrong brackets, then I will need to buy a set, which leads to another question, Are the repops any good??? Thanks for your time, Harold

Re: help needed info on 4x4 rear sport bumper brackets

Harold,
i've had several people argue with me over the years on this subject. "true" 4x4 inner brackets have a support bar welded into them. i have a couple sets of real inners somewhere in my storage container. everything is a mess around here but if i run across them i'll post a pic for you--i'm doing spring cleaning in november and i'm finding stuff i'd forgotten about years ago.

Your right Harold, I have a set from a Blazer that DO have the welded support bar across the bolt holes.
