The http://www.autopartsfair.com/ford-exter ... -7746.html will fit on 1968 to 1971 on the front sweptline. The Dennis Carpenter bumper '68 f100 rear bumper will also fit the 1968 to 1971 sweptline if you make a bracket. I bought both, but the rear is to wide for my Utiline, but I plan on doing some modifications to it to make it work. Hope that helps, I do not know if they will fit any other years.

The frames are the same width on all years of light duty Sweptlines.
