rear bumper relocation bracket
1992 f150 standard cab 4x4
I bought the truck with a 3" body lift and the rear bumper sticks down and it is bothering me. so do any of you know where I can get a rear bumper relocation bracket separate from a full body lift kit. I searched the Internet and I found them for the chevys and dodges but not the fords wtf.
and also do any of you have experience with the bronco air bumpers? I want to get one with the hitch and remove my old hitch so that way when I move the bumper up my hitch wont be sticking down.

Did the SAME exact thing on my truck, put a 3" body lift on it and had the ugly gap above the rear bumper.
Here is how I lifted mine, WITHOUT any relocation brackets:

Ok, here's a pic of how I raised the bumper. First, I used some regular 1/2 inch bolts instead of the original ones. There is actually already a hole in the frame there that I used for the rear bolt, but it is quite a bit larger than the bolt so I used a large washer and nut on the inside of the frame. Once I had the rear bolts in place, I adjusted the bumper so it was level and then drilled the front holes. You can see in the pic I had to drill a new hole in both the bumper bracket and the frame because the original hole in the bumper bracket is too high up on the frame.
