ruff1148kr Posted March 18, 2014 Report Posted March 18, 2014 Hi guys I'm down in FL on vacation and have a chance to go to Daytona Turkey Run/Swap meet on the 28th thought I'd look for a front bumper that might work with 48 mounts, but being away from the truck do not have measurements with me. Have seen new 48 ford truck front bumpers in chrome at swap meets here for 130.00 similar mount style mount. any one have stock bumper measurements I can use as a guide? I have only seen 1 pilothouse truck in the 30 or so shows and cruises so far that we have went to. The Bumper Boys from TX were at a few shows but want crazy money. Any Ideas what else might fit on a 48 ? thanks Quote

ruff1148kr Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks BARRY and you too Keven Though Id look around here since I had to drive back anyhow and could save on shipping those bumpers were heavy... Those Fords and chevys get all cheaper reproduction deals us mopar guys either have to pay a arm and a leg or deal with what we got. Also Keven great pic I can only hope to get mine back in shape one day. One more thing I need to find is the splash shield for in front of the running boards have one not sure what side it is but will work on that when I get home Quote
