Question 4x4 Front Bumper

I finally bent my front tube bumper on my '68 f250 4x4. I have seen a couple of 2wd f-series front bumpers in the junkyard in good shape, but they seem to mount differently than my 4x4. What am I missing?

Good Luck.(not being sarcastic)The bumpers are the same but there are 2 brackets that bolt to your frame first and and the bumper mounts to them.On a 2 wd the bumper mounts right to the frame.Those brackets are nearly impossible to find anymore.

I've thought about cutting the frame horns off and using them for the brackets to mount the bumper. There is an f250 4x4 at the local wrecking yard and I think it has the brackets.
