thanks!
Barnfind - the brackets I used were from LMC truck - part number 40-3713. I redrilled and shortened mine so the bumper would sit in what I thought was the proper position.

I got my brackets today. I am totally confused on how they bolt onto the frame. Do you have more pictures of how the brackets bolt up. Any help is appreciated.

Do you have any pictures of how these brackets bolt onto your truck frame. I purchased the brackets but am very confused as to how they bolt up.

Is this bumper supposed to have an arc in it?

I would say no, the brackets are flat. It might pull back out when you tighten it down hard to say. That center section likes to kink if you bend it to much! If you have a long enough piece of I beam you can use big clamps and blocks of wood to move it where you want it or is this something you will return?

I ordered this from DC and ups dropped it off this week. Just not sure if it’s damaged as the are no other signs other than the arc. Want to make sure before I inquire with customer service.
