Bumper Ideas?
I am changing my front and rear bumpers on my 87 swb due to one minor dent on the front and the rear has this redneck bumper on it that I am not to fond of. (sorry if your a redneck) I wanna go back with a oem style bumper. I have seen a couple pics and trucks at car shows that seem to have the bumper sit closer to the body than normal which I think gives it an awesome look. Is there a certain bumper like this or is it a proceess of cutting the brackets to give it that look? and Also which site would yall recc. I purchase the bumopers from with the best prices because LMC seems to want alot for their bumpers. Thank yall for any help!

Re: Bumper Ideas?
LMC is pretty much the only place I use, so I can't help you there, but I know that on those trucks where the bumpers sit further in they slotted the mount holes on the bumper.

Re: Bumper Ideas?
I got my Front bumper from LMC. They have a 5 year warranty on the chrome if you get the premium bumper. nobody else I came across even had a warranty on their chrome, which tells me they sell crap. The fit and finish was as good as the original bumper was and the chrome looks really good on mine.
![]() The bumper bolts everybody sells aren't mirror polished like mine, I had to put mineon the buffing wheel to get the shine on em. Last edited by 78 Chevyrado; 03-29-2011 at 07:02 PM. |
