It's not finished, the black is a primer that keeps it from rusting when shipped, i'll repaint it white. The bumper width is about a 1/2" short per side.67step100 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 8:10 amDon't know about the colour but that looks really good.Volksnut wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 6:49 pmSo here it is in mock up stage. I ended up with the Ford F100 style, I used there brackets too. I was able to use the first hole in the frame with the bracket, re-drilled bumper as frame is wider than a Ford. Welded up old holes and cut 1" from back of bumper (by plate) to push closer to body. Oh what color white are the bumpers?
What is the total length of the bumper? I am thinking something similar for my Utiline but would like to know how far the bumper will stick out from the side of the box.

Re: Rear bumper question D100
Thanks volksnut but my backend is completely different than yours. I have a Utiline and I just want to get an idea how far out beyond the box it will sit, hence wanting the total length. Thanks.

Re: Rear bumper question D100
Thanks volksnut.
Has anyone fit a '60-66 Chevy stepside rear bumper? It looks very similar to the original Utiline Dodge rear bumper but I think a bit wider. It is narrower than the ford by almost 6" so would probably look better on a Utiline (the Chevy bumper is 70 3/4" at its widest point).

Re: Rear bumper question D100
Yes, I did several years ago. I like the look and it was hard to pass up the $100 price tag for a brand new (primered) bumper. That was through LMC.
Re: Rear bumper question D100
I used a '61-'68 style Sweptline front bumper for the rear bumper on my '65 D100.

Sent you a PM asking for pics of your brackets for mounting if possible.Series1Utiline wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 6:17 pm

Re: Rear bumper question D100
Damn, that turned out really nice! I have a few more pressing issues, but an affordable rear bumper is on the list for my 67 D200
