59-60 front bumper brackets

i have a 58 f100 with the flat c channel bumper. well i ordered the curved chrome front bumper from LMC for a 59-60 truck. the new bumper doesnt mount the same as the old one. anyone know where i can get a set of front bumper brackets to mount this bumper. it looks like the lower mounts are the same. its the uppper mounts that i need. any ideas?
thanks for the help!
Ryan

Well the 1st problem is the fact that the front ends for the '57-'58s & the '59-'60s are completely different from each other & well not match-up.
The '59 front end was a Complete redisign from the '57-'58s & then the '60 front end was once again was completely redisigned from the '59.

Salvage yards or e-Bay are going to be the Only places you'll find the parts you recquire for your "Orphan Years Truck".

On the stock 60 front bumper (painted) the bottom brackets are riveted to the bumper. I had mine chromed and had to grind/punch out the rivets. I have 3 '60s and all are the same.
