Swapping bumpers question?

Hey everyone, I want to get rid of the step bumber and go to the smooth chrome style but I have a question about the brackets. Will the brackets from the step bumper bolt up to the smooth one? I noticed that the smooth one has 4 carriage bolts per side and the step only has two per side. The bolts look to be in different locations as well. Top picture is my truck the day I got it. Bottom truck I just got off google. Thank you.

Brackets from the step bumper won't work on the "sport" bumper. If your interested in new stuff, LMC has it all. If your doing the pick n pull, slim pickins. I have a bumper and brackets from a blazer on my truck but only the inner brackets work.

Yeah you can swap bumpers just need the matching brackets for that bumper they are different.
