Swapping 82 step bumper for "sport" bumper ?'s

I wanna swap my 82 step bumper to a sport bumper and didn't know if I need to buy a different mounting bracket or if it just bolts right in place.

You will need new mounting brackets.

Do yourself a favor and go to the junk yard and get a subruban bumper with the 2 outside brackets. Install and be done for under a hundred.
