Take a look at this bumper. If your interesed in a step bumper, this is 
a Fey bumper for a late 60's Ford. I don't have a number or anything 
handy. All the newer Chevy bumpers are too narrow. I went to a local 
shop with my tape measure in hand and found one with the correct width. 
We carried it out to the truck and it fit well ( check out the lip that 
fills in the area under the tailgate). The brackets even fit. I think 
the instructions said something about a 34 inch frame, close enough. I 
drilled new holes in the frame and it's done. This doesn't hang down 
like they do on Fords. The bottom of the bumper lines up with the body.
