Hi there!
I have a question regarding the Front Bumper. As you can see with the picture, my truck is lacking a front bumper. I have the bumper to the truck... my only problem is that I don't have a way to mount it. Everyone I have spoken to insists that the bumper bolts directly to the frame. I cannot find any holes on the bumper that line up with anything on the frame. The bumper has holes on the top and front of the bumper. The frame only has holes on the sides (that indicated to me that I might be missing a bracket).
My question is: Are there brackets that bolt between the frame and the bumper? Or am I missing part of the frame? I have included one of the only pictures of the truck I have. I can take more and post them here. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the photo... aint she a beauty??!
Thats the original shot before I got her. It still looks more or less the same. Found the grille, new mirrors, fender. Still the same brown. Any color ideas??
do you still have the old pictures of this bumper ? I’m in the same boat 1969 f350 an I have a bumper but there is only mounting holes on side of the frame

Here is a pic of the bumper I just recently got back on the truck. Mine uses to brackets to mount to the frame. The truck is a f250 4x4. Here is a pic of the brackets.
This was as I was re welding the bracket. I had to shim my core support up higher to get my body lined up, so the bumper was hitting the lower valance. I had to adjust a 1/4 inch or so to make it work right.

nice thanks for the pictures! I believe the bracket that you sent in the photo is what I am needing . Most people I talk to say all these bumpers just mount to the frame no brackets . In my case it looks like mine does need some sort of bracket
