WTB: Rear Bumper Brackets

I am in search of the two inner rear bumper brackets for a short bed.

I don't have any spares, but for sake of what you're looking for, what year, 2wd or 4wd, leaf or coil springs? Factory SWB?

It goes a long way to know your frame rail's bolt pattern. Could be 5", 5.3" or 7.1", assuming it's factory, speaking for I believe 68-72 frames.

5" takes what some call "coil spring" brackets. They're the shorter of the two available inner brackets.

7.1" takes what some call "4x4" brackets. They're the longer of the two available inner brackets. Both the 5" & 7.1" take the same outer brackets.

5.3" takes you're SOL, but more power to you to find them. The 5" bolt pattern inner brackets can be modified to fit. The common outer brackets have to be modified as well.
