They're few and far between. Not many rigs were ordered with the contour bumper cuz folks wanted to use their truck as a tow rig and instead opted for a dock bumper.... they're just hard to find.

An oem set will sell for between $60 and $80 local. .. ebay twice that due to simple convenience.

That is what the PM's (private messages) are for. Work a deal off line and not on the public forum, at least that is how FTE likes it to go.

fordf100guy, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the contour bumper and brackets for the f250 highboy trucks will NOT fit your "76 short bed 2wd" because of the difference in frame widths.

High Boys use a different chrome contour rear bumper (C4TZ-17906-B) than non High Boys (D3TZ-17906-A), but the bumper brackets are the same for both.

1978/79 Bronco's also use this D3TZ-17906-A bumper, but the brackets are Bronco only.

D3TZ-17787-C Right & D3TZ-17788-C Left .. Inner Styleside Contour Rear Bumper Brackets / Obsolete

D3TZ-17795-B Right & D3TZ-17796-B Left .. Outer Styleside Contour Rear Bumper Brackets / Obsolete

1973/79 F100/150 - 1973/79 F250 2WD/4WD - 1973/79 F350 except on the 140" wheelbase.

No one has any of the right or left inner or right outer brackets. There are 3 D3TZ-17796-B left outers available NOS

Thanks for the correction ND! I know the complete assembly wouldn't swap from one to the other, but that makes sense that the brackets would all be the same, with the difference being in the mounting locations on the bumpers.

99 = Body style for Styleside pickups.

1979: First year the FoMoCo offered the F350 with 4WD .. not available on the 140" wheelbase.

1973/79 F350's on the 140" wheelbase are all Regular Cab Styleside pickups.
