Ok, so we've found out the front wont work. Ive got a question, will a rear bumper off an 89 fit on a 96? I know of a nice Westin Drop Chrome rear bumper that I can get for near nothing. Yes, no, maybe?

I have an 89, and a 96. I wanted to know if the rear would work on MY 96.

The rear bumpers may be interchangable since the rear of the Bronco didn't really change all that much. The front end got that stupid "crush zone" in the front of the frame rails when Ford did the redesign of the front end. That and the change in the body contours necessitated the change in mounting for the front bumper.

If you have access to both trucks, get out the tape measure and see if the holes and brackets line up.
