Question about rear chrome bumpers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

502ss · 08-07-2010, 06:30 PM

I have an 84 1 ton crew cab dually that had this huge bumper on it. I have removed it and want to replace it with a nice chrome one. When I looked at places like brothers or lmc the pictures they have look like there is no backing where the license plate attaches. Did the bumpers from those years not have any material behind the plate? (I find that hard to believe). Can anyone shed some light on this? Here is a link to a bumper I am referring to.

Thanks
Jim

There is a seperate piece that bolts in there to hold the plate

You will need to find a used, or new license plate bracket that bolts to the bumper. They are reproduced, and inexpensive.
