i found a bronco rear bumper, only dentless one at a junkyard. i read on google that the brackets are different. can i use the 87 bronco bumper and attached it to my stock 95 f150 brackets?

 

Yes...................

 

thanks. i read about 20 threads on it but everyone said they had to modifiy the brackets. would be easier to just use the f150 brackets.

 

Bronco brackets are different.

Just use your brackets.

There is no difference between a pickup and bronco bumper

 

all 4 brackets are different? if not, which ones are different? the 2 smaller ones or the 2 longer ones?

 

The main brackets, Not the supports

 

oh ok. thanks. so the short ones right behind the license plate i believe that point straight dont fit. the support brackets do fit. i still have my old damaged bumper so i'll swap the main brackets

 

which brackets are the main brackets?

 

anyone know?

 

The short ones that go straight from the bumper to the frame NOT the long ones that come in from the corners

 

i got the bumper from a junkyard yesterday. i thought the supporting brackets were the same. my f150 supporting brackets dont fit the bronco bumper maybe its just bent. i'll find out.

its hard as hel to get those bolts off after the bumpers off the truck.

 

i did this last week but just an update. i had to swap all 4 brackets. in case anyone else has the same problem.

 

IIRC, the bumper brackets are only different on the different body styles.
I put a bko front&rear bumper on my truck a couple years ago to replace damaged bumpers. My 150's a 94 and the bko was a 93, didn't have to swap brackets if I remember correctly.
Needless to say, my bumpers are almost as bad now
