rear bumper help

Im needing a rear bumper for my 88 crew, and while searching craigslist. found a ad for a bumper. but what threw me was he advertised it as a rear bumper for a full size truck or van. my question is are the truck bumpers the same for a van. if so that would make my search a little easier. thanks

Re: rear bumper help

The frame rails on vans are farther apart than on trucks. you'd have to redo all the bolt holes to use a van bumper on a truck.

Re: rear bumper help

If it fits a van it will not "fit" your truck.
