Gotta feeling the answer is no. Try lining up the holes in the bumper with the bolts on your truck.

Re: Will This Bumper Fit?

I don't have that bumper, it is for sale on craigslist for $75 bucks.
I really want to run a smooth chrome bumper rather than a roll pan. but Im not ready to shell out $200 inc. shipping for a new one.

Thanks again.

It will fit, but the brackets will not. You need to make your own.

Re: Will This Bumper Fit?

I had a bumper like that on the back of a parts truck. It worked pretty good. Use the brackets from teh bumper and at worse you may have to drill a hole. I don't remember if there were extra holes on the parts truck or not.
