I would like to see some pictures of the rear bumpers you have on your stepsides...

Mine is awful and I am looking for ideas...

So please post pics.

Longhorn Man · 08-19-2006, 11:29 AM

can a step bumper NOT look awful on any truck?

Mudder · 08-19-2006, 12:39 PM

Thanks Andy

Perfect length Mud

Longhorn Man · 08-19-2006, 03:20 PM

Randy, you know I think your truck is badass... but, I would have to sell that to someone with an S-10.
Just my preference.

**67sss** · 08-19-2006, 03:47 PM

I like stock chrome ones......

Matt67C10 · 08-19-2006, 04:15 PM

My aircraft carrier step bumper...

**CMars45000** · 08-19-2006, 04:22 PM

I would take a picture of mine but it was thrown away yesterday

Probabl yhte best thing I have done for my truck so far was throw that away...

Here is the bumper from my '67 - still for sale BTW

casterbuster · 08-20-2006, 10:44 AM

all of these are just about as ugly as mine.

I think mudders looks the best so far...

Keep'em coming guys surely there is a shiny diamond out there somewhere

I don't have pics, but gr8scott51 had a shortened El Camino bumper on his step. It looked like it belonged. ( Last I heard from him, he was selling the truck and buying a motorcycle. )

Longhorn Man · 08-20-2006, 11:43 AM

Well Randy, yours DOES look better than the back portch on Matt's truck.. but that factory bumper (who dubbed them sport bumpers anyways?) looks the best IMO.

For the record though, I have a fugly step bumper on mine right now too.

**Boog** · 08-20-2006, 12:00 PM

I've got to ride with the hornman on this one. I think it's hard to beat the chrome sport OE bumper on our steps. I like rolled pans too but they just seem to be lacking to me. Sport bumper with a hidden hitch is going on mine.

**Palf70Step** · 08-20-2006, 02:13 PM

This is what came on my 69 parts truck. Not sure what, if anything other than after market, it came from. I like the looks of the sport bumpers, like Andy mentioned, but I do like the comvience of the step buymper for climbing in and out of the bed. Mine is a little worn and I'm planning on replacing it with another step bumper that looks the same or as close to this as I can.

Here's mine. Nothing special

Wootdog or Woogeroo or one of the Woo guys has a El Camino bumper that didn't look all that bad.

It is very difficult to find a step bumper that looks good on any stepside IMO.

I'd run a standard chrome bumper or a roll pan.

casterbuster · 08-20-2006, 08:43 PM

thinking about building my own with 4" pipe and some short radius 90's...
that is if i can't find anything I like
