Re: fleetside Bumper

I learned this lesson the hard way when I made the swap from step to fleet side. I had a perfect chrome stepside bumper, you should have seen my face when I went to bolt it up after putting the fleetside bed on. Lucky for me I had an original steel bumper in the back yard (one of those parts ya pick up even though you know you don't need it) that happened to be from a fleetside.

Your a smart man. Those rear bumpers are Very hard to find used...I had been looking for about two years and never found one. I even tried a front bumper cut down on the rear................Didn't look right
