Looks like an old Steel Horse. Haven't seen one of those in a long time.

Would this work? it's for a Bronco II or Ranger - I don't know how the bumper profile differs from the full size Bronco/Truck

I believe the headlight brush guards are removable on those styles so it SHOULD be REAL similar to what you're looking for...

I snatched the one off of my old '86 before I sold it.







I just remembered RL250 was looking for measurements on it so he could fab one up, i've been forgetting to get that to him. I have a good friend who used to teach welding at a college, and I bet he could weld up a new one.

Looking for the same thing here, found a 83 F150 wrecked on ebay that they were selling parts off of but they never emailed me back I asked about the pushbar/brushguard and how much they wanted for it.

I will probably end up paying to have one made or try to make one myself.

The problem here is that they were sold up to last year, because LMC was selling them in their catalog. Then I ordered a new catalog this year and it's no longer in there.

Too bad LMC stopped selling them. I would have gladly bought one today if they offered them.

I looked online today and I really couldnt find anything. Closest I found was a bumper system for these trucks that comes with or without a provision for mounting a winch. Thing is though I didnt like how that bumper looked as it had that modern ranch hand look to it.

Have one on my 83 f150, some pitted rust in the corners but overall in good solid condition. Live here in Ky, what kind of prices are they going for. Might be willing to sell mine for some new parts on Ethel.
