pic request, bumpers with foglights - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

GreyHoundSteve · 02-23-2005, 11:06 AM

Would everyone who has pictures of trucks with bumpers that have foglights please post them for me here. I was originally going to go with a rollpan but decided not to cut my frame and so im looking for new bumper ideas and was wanting to see what others have done.
Thanks

If you have an LMC catalog they have them. They look really cool to me but they are pricey.

GreyHoundSteve · 02-23-2005, 11:59 AM

GMC Paul has them for $220 which isn't too bad but i want to see what they look like on some trucks.

67ChevyRedneck · 02-23-2005, 07:08 PM

My bad

TTT for ya

1-PU70 · 02-23-2005, 07:57 PM

Here ya go

68gmcdually · 02-23-2005, 09:42 PM

I like the look of those. Can you buy a bumper already cut or do you get the fun and satisfaction of ruining your own?

jay6891 · 02-23-2005, 09:48 PM

here is one for ya

GreyHoundSteve · 02-23-2005, 09:54 PM

Thanks guys. I have that silver truck (it was the inspiration for my truck) but im sure that guy did his own because he has little led sidemarkers and shaved bolts.

1-pu70, thats the only other truck ive seen with that bumper, is it yours? If so, are you happy with the purchase?

1-PU70 · 02-23-2005, 10:07 PM

Yes thats my truck and am very happy with it. I got it here http://www.christiansclassics.com/
Very nice people to do business with. Tim is a stand -up guy.

I didnt see it listed in his online catalogue but ive heard nothing but good things about Tim. I think that bumper looks good on your truck. Do you have them on a seperate switch from the headlights? Was the switch or relays suplied with the bumper and lights?

Anyone else seen any trucks with this bumper?

greasemonkey · 02-23-2005, 10:41 PM

1-PU70, that's a beautiful truck. I don't remember ever seeing it before.

68gmcdually · 02-23-2005, 11:09 PM

I wonder if you can get one to fit a '68 GMC, I guess that a phone call is in order now.

Chevyguy111786 · 02-23-2005, 11:13 PM

hey GHS, that's Mike Hall's truck, he too is from around here, actually a great guy. I bet your right on him fabbing it himself....he's quite a character. He's got his own shop at 35 and walnut hill.

James67 · 02-24-2005, 04:31 AM

This is a new primered bumper with 4" steel tubing welded to the inside and cut out for the lights

72 CustomCamper · 02-24-2005, 06:12 AM

I don't know who's truck this is but I like the way the lights are in it...

can we get a pic of the back of that bumper and how its hooked to the truck i have seen alot of bumpers shaved of the bumper bolts but never seen how they are hooked to the truck , like how do ya adjust it to fit ?

MOTHERTRUCKERS · 02-24-2005, 07:57 AM

I have the TRI PLUS fog light bumpers on ebay and in my catalog for 179.00

GreyHoundSteve · 02-24-2005, 09:11 AM

Mothertruckers, that a good price. I bought my 1pc windows from you and an pleased with the quality, i'll probably be giving you a call on one of those bumpers as soon as i get my front end back on the truck.

You cut the head off the bolts and weld them to the bumper. I welded a washer to the back to reinforce it. Don't install the top bracket untill the bumper is loosely installed, it's a little harder to get on but it looks good.

GreyHoundSteve · 02-25-2005, 11:08 AM

James, do you think we could get a picture of the front of that bumper so i can see how the lights look in it. Also, do you have the name brand and part # of those lights?

i like that and it really looks cool too thanks for the pics and info and yea can ya get the name of the lights and the part no# please and what size pipe was that the lights mount in ?

James67 · 02-27-2005, 09:44 PM

I used 4" Dia. schedule 40 pipe and cut it at a 21 deg. angle. When you tack the pipe on the rear of the bumper to mark the cut out you need to rotate the pipe 20 deg off center because of the compound angle of the bumper. The lights I used are made by Pilot Motorsports the P/N is PL-330 and I got them at Advanced Auto. I hope that helps

I am not sure if i am right on this,I think this bumper is a 71-72 chevy bumper with the lights addad to where the turn lights were on the 71-72 models.I am going to swap a chevy bumper on my 72 gmc 1-ton and add driving light into the trun light openings

GreyHoundSteve · 02-28-2005, 10:50 AM
