Need a quick measurement

The measurement is from the flat of the tail gate (closed) to the center of the bumper bolt and then how far apart, My rear frame rails had an encounter with a welder and a 1/2 thick welded all the way around flippin bumper so I had to make new frame horns and want to redrill the holes for stock bumpers,If someone could be so kind as to give me the dimensions Id be greatful.

Not sure what ur lookin 4 - so not such a "quick measurement".

If there has been a body lift or other adjustment (age) the:
"...from the flat of the tail gate (closed) to the center of the bumper bolt..."
will B off.

back of Jeff's catalogue has all the measurements. The horn goes straight out from the rest of the frame & the L/R distance is on ur bumper ('less that's destroyed too). There's a clip the bolts go thru between the bumper & frame. Lemmie No if U still need measurements. Also I have a template of the side view of the horns (rear only I think - mine, frnt has been fooled w/ 4 the plow) if I can find them.

If it has from the center of the rear body bolt hole to bumper that would work,As for how its cut I'll just make it look like the front ones with the swoop in it....Im guessing its about the same location as the front bumper holes but want to be sure.

sorry, thought the easiest thing 2 do would B go out'n meqsure mine. forgot this 1, final build, is molested. there's a cross bar welded on there - on rear horns 4 da reece...

From a top view:
well it's in the middle of the horn (29 1/4 inches minus the 2 half widths of the 2 horns [get it?]). (27 inches center to center?)
Also from a top view:
cross the whole rig left frnt to right rear (hole to hole) is 151 3/8 inches.

I can't give U exactly what U want (now THAT would B 2 easy, right?) but have located them 4 U.
additionally:
R frnt bolt hole to R rear = 151 7/8. Same L to L....
