im not a fan of after market guards or bumpers, i had one of these on my 79 bronco. They came on some bronco's,F150,and vans and i always liked them. Sense they dont make one for the high water's i had to make my own. I live where theres lots of deer so it may help a little but i hope i never find out. Im thinking of bending up an in cab roll cage,dont need it but ya never know,lol. Ive built drag racing cage's and chassis for the last 28yrs, i make everything out of chromoly tubing and tig weld it. Moly tubing is very light yet very strong.
If by "this style" you mean like my Bronco has then yes.
my 79 bronco had the same thing,the yellow one above. I have an early 77 F250 right now and the frame is narrower than your bronco, so they dont fit. That is why i had to make one.
No, actually the frame of the high water (high boy) trucks are the same width. At least in the front and under the cab. They just don't get wider in the rear under the bed like the 150's, bronco's, standard 250 4x4's and 4x2's, and 350 trucks. But the push bar/grille guard is different give the different contour style of the 73-77 front bumper (yes I know it was used much longer then 73-77) and the 78-79 front bumper. So the frame is not the issue here.

Already explained, the front frame horns are the same width just a different shape.

If all you wanted was some "kudos" on the build then nice job on the build.

I was merely correcting your error.
That is probably the first 1st or 2nd time I've ever heard them called high waters.
X2 as ranger429. Just merely trying to correct a stated error. Not trying to offend at all. Nor was I meaning that you should cut up your hard work. As someone else stated, you could probably make those and sell them to some of the other members on here. I know a lot of guys on here have inquired about them several times. If your interested just do an advance search of this forum and see for yourself. Or you could start a thread to see what kind of interest you'll get on these. But if you do that I'd suggest having people pm you for pricing instead of listing the price in thread. That is a no no. And the mods might close the thread.
