Rear Bumper

I was wondering if the rear bumper and brackets from a 53 F100 would work on a 48 F1.

Thanks

Terry

I doubt the brackets will work, the F1 frame is narrower, but new brackets wouldn't be all that difficult to fab.

Thanks Ax.

Would the bumper be to wide and stick out past the fenders?

Don't know, I have a panel it uses a different rear bumper.

The '48-56 brackets are the same, just the bumpers are different.
