Bumper fitment?

I searched bumper fitment and saw opinions all over the board, literally I suppose there is no black and white answer on this, but would appreciate some opinions.

Would after market off road type front and rear bumpers designed for a early 80's Bronco (something like BroncoAir) fit on a 1997 F350?

By fit, I mean would the body lines likely be the same or real close? I am hoping at least a yes on this. In a perfect world, the body lines and the existing bumper to frame mounts would line up. Thanks for any insight or opinions.

it is VERY simple.

NO. The mounts are different and so is the sheetmetal

the only thing the two trucks share is the outside width of the frame rails
