79-93 chrome front bumper differences?
 
i have a chrome bumper and brackets that i purchased from a business that is no longer open. the brackets fit my truck (85) but the bumper doesn't come close to fitting the brackets?

so what im looking for is how many different brackets and different chrome front bumpers were there over the years (79-93)? i think i may have a late 70's bumper from my research but im not 100% sure. i will provide pictures of what i have tomorrow.

thanks

There was this one up to 85 or 86 I think...I like it better than the bigger bumper of the later years.

That is the only other bumper I know of from 81-93 that Dodge used,

besides the common one on 99% of all the diesel trucks, below

This is the 91-93 Bumper

Mines a bit different on my 84, which is the same one that was on my 87 and my 86 parts truck. The rib that sticks out on that black one Brandon posted, is concave on mine.

That's the same as the 91-93 bumper without the pads...that's what most of late 80's mid 80's had. i think it was an option...the one i posted with the rib may have been a standard bumper

the bumper i want is the one crossy's son posted on the black truck...can anyone with that style bumper measure the distance between the bolt holes on one side (center to center of the bolts). im trying to figure out what i have here...

thanks guys.

Bumper Boyz they might be at a show near you. A buddy used them for bumpers on his Challenger very nice work

i called bumperboys and they want 390.00 [yuk] for one and there is a 75.00 fee to pick it up from one of the shows that will be in my area in nov...[dummy]

465.00 for a bumper is kinda hard to swallow...

anymore ideas anyone???
