Yes they are the same bumper... with different holes. Also, rear bumper mount holes are different from 60-62 and 63-66 due to frame changes. make sure you get the right one for your year.

I'm not looking for a bumper, my original painted ones are nice. I picked up an original chrome rear for a 65 suburban with the brackets, and didn't know how hard they might be to find. I thought it looked a lot like the front, though. My trucks not here to take a close look. |

They made FAR less Suburbans than trucks, so legit rear bumpers are not easy to find. That said, one could be made from a front bumper (before chrome or paint) if needed.

If you decide you don't want the bumper let me know. I just bought a 63 4x4 Burb.
